Open the Amazon Alexa app and use settings at the top left of the page, Scroll down to “Skills & Games” then search for “Wink”. Once selected, click “Enable Skill” and enter your Wink account credentials to link the accounts.

After your Wink account and Amazon accounts are linked, just say ‘Alexa, discover devices’. You can also discover devices in the ‘Connected Home’ section of the Alexa App Settings page. Select ‘Discover Devices’ to have Alexa find all connected and compatible devices.

Alexa will need to download a necessary firmware update before it can discover your Connected Devices. Alexa does this in the background, but you can speed up the process by muting Alexa and leaving it idle for 30 minutes. It will then download the most up-to-date firmware.

Amazon Alexa allows you to switch between user accounts to accommodate multiple users in a household. You will only be able to control what is connected to the active user account. If you have a Wink device connected to Alexa Account #1 and music services connected to Alexa Account #2, you will not be able to both listen to music and control your devices. In this example, the account would need to be changed by voice (‘Alexa, switch accounts’) to adjust the music or control a connected device.

Yes, you can turn Amazon Alexa's microphone off by pushing the microphone on/off button on the top of the device.

Alexa is not yet able to recognize Groups that were created in the Wink App. New groups can be created in the Alexa app which are compatible with voice commands. Click ‘Create group’ in the Connected Home Settings in the Alexa app, select the devices you would like to group and save a name for the group. You will now be able to tell Alexa to turn on or turn off this group name.

To control products with Alexa, say "Alexa" to light up the ring at the top. Then say a voice command like "turn off the bedroom light" or "turn on the kitchen light." Please make sure to give each product a unique name in the Wink app so Echo knows which product you want to control. If you change the name of a product in the Wink app, you'll need to ask Alexa to discover devices to learn the new name of that product.

There are many commands you can use to change the brightness by certain increments. Saying “Alexa, Dim (device name)” will dim your device by 25%. You can also say “Alexa, Brighten (device name)” to brighten your device by 25%. You can adjust any device to a brightness of your choosing by saying “Alexa, set (device name) to (number between 0-100)."

You can say: "Alexa, set thermostat to x degrees," "Alexa, increase thermostat by x degrees," or "Alexa, decrease thermostat by x degrees."
