Are you meaning an Alexa plug-in or native Alexa/Echo support in Indigo.

I think it is mentioned few posts above by Jay; it is high prio, but of course no ETA. I think this should be the most important feature/change request at the moment.

Can only agree with you, my wife loves to just talk to Alexa and then the lights come on, etc.

Re: Alexa no longer discovering Indigo installed/managed dev

I got my Echo Dot Gen 1 shipped from the states to Sweden a week ago. Shipping cost was almost as much as the Eco Dot. But we have been missing voice command for almost 2 months here.
Fingers crossed that this workaround last, until native Alexa/Echo support comes to Indigo.

That's fine, but for example you cannot (yet) control Fibaro devices.
Just with Siri, and if you do not have an HomePod it is always a PITA (yes, also with a Apple Watch)

Re: Alexa no longer discovering Indigo installed/managed dev

I'm finally getting around to debugging this myself and I think Jay's sticky point is completely valid.

Whats nice for me though is that I work at Amazon (AWS in fact) and thus I might be able to get some attention (or at least explanation) from the Alexa team about this.

Stay tuned....

Re: Alexa no longer discovering Indigo installed/managed dev

But do you add them to the Philips Hue Hub, or how?
Indigo of course does not support ZigBee natively
