Amazon Alexa and Mercedes ME Skill

[rorywquin]

I recently installed it but it seems to keep unlinking from Alexa.

Also a fairly limited list of commands - examples from the Skill below...


"Alexa, tell Mercedes to lock my car” - works
“Alexa, tell Mercedes to turn on air conditioning” - electric cars only I think
“Alexa, tell Mercedes to turn off air conditioning” - electric cars only I think
“Alexa, tell Mercedes to search for coffee” - works
“Alexa, ask Mercedes about my car status” - works
“Alexa, ask Mercedes where is my car?”- works
“Alexa, ask Mercedes to send an address”- works
“Alexa, ask Mercedes to remind me to buy flowers”- works (one off when you start teh car)
“Alexa, ask Mercedes what is my car fuel level?”- works
“Alexa, ask Mercedes what is my car range?”- works
“Alexa, ask Mercedes when is my car service due?”- works
“Alexa, ask Mercedes to update my primary car” - only one car linked but assume it works.

So no- “Alexa,wash and wax my car”

 

[LostKiwi]

So no- “Alexa,wash and wax my car”

Of more use would be "Alexa tell Mercedes to stop leaking oil from the ABC struts!"

 

[Frosty149]

“Alexa, have you hurt Siri? and where’s Cortana gone?”

Who are all these women in my life?

 

[daibevan]

We are only one step away from "They Who Must Be Obeyed".

It will not be too long before this will work:
“Alexa, send the Mercedes to pick up the wife from the train station”

 

[LostKiwi]

We are only one step away from "They Who Must Be Obeyed".

"Resistance is futile...."

 

[mercedes13156]

"Resistance is futile...."

But much fun....

 

[rorywquin]

So no- “Alexa,wash and wax my car”

That would be the one to have.......

Excellent, did not know this but whilst laying here suffering from very serious man flu I updated the skill in the app and can now lie here and annoy my car with stupid inane questions.

BAhahah that actually made me LOL

 

[Yugguy]

Feck me. Ask Alexa?????

I can't help thinking it must be quicker to just press the lock button.

That and I'd never actually trust that it had locked, I'd have to go and check.

Did you ever resolve the unlinking Rory?

Did you ever resolve the unlinking Rory?

No, I don’t use it, I just look at my phone.

No, I don’t use it, I just look at my phone.

One way to get around it

Thanks for the update
