![]() I wish we could label timers/alarms. When cooking, I sometimes have several timers set. |

This is awesome! I wanted this feature for a very long time! I have two reoccurring alarms each week so happy not to need to set them each time now.

I'd use it for my daily "get up for work" alarm except it's too easy to turn off. I have to have my alarm clock across the room so I have to get up to turn it off. If all I had to do is yell "Alexa shaddup!" I'd never get up.

For those who are technically inclined, Build your own Amazon Echo using a Raspberry Pi for $60.

Yup, I can't wait until someone integrates it into a smartphone. I'm kind of surprised that Amazon hasn't done that already in the iPhone/Android "Alexa" apps. After all, all the hardware is there already.

At the monkey,
You could just ignore Alexa altogether and either get a plug in timer for your crockpot or a programable crockpot. |

My Echo hadn't been playing music for several days. It would respond to my request but didn't actually connect.
I fixed the problem by unplugging the device, waiting a minute, and then plugging it back in. Just thought I'd mention this in case it helps someone else... |
