Since the AVS (Alexa Voice Services) have been abandoned I don’t see anymore a reliable way to automate sending command to Alexa.
My use case is building and Android plugin for Tasker/Macrodroid which allows users to trigger Alexa commands via text in order to create cross-system automations.
So far my best bets are:
- AVS: allows exactly that but it’s no longer available
- Send Alexa app an intent: but this does not happen in the background and requires user confirmation
Am I missing anything?
Specifically I see two open questions:
- is there a way to register a new app to AVS and still use it?
- is there a way to send a background intento to the android Akexa apo and have it just execute the command?
