Alexa is becoming compatible with more and more devices every day. These days one can sit back and control their entire smart home entirely with their voice. One can yell out commands to their Echo Speaker and have multiple things happen without lifting a finger. What a world we live in!

Supported smart home devices include so much more than typical devices such as Philips Hue Lights or the Shark Robot Vacuum such as Dyson fans. That’s correct! You can use Alexa to turn your Dyson fan on or off as well as adjust the speed of the fan to your liking. If you have the correct model you can even keep yourself toasty warm in the winter or nice and cool during the summers.
