I have been playing with it for a few days. I like that you dont need a pre phrase to invoke the skill as they have created it as a smart home skill. That being said they are missing some features we have like voice guide. Pressing any give button etc. It is nice in my opnion to see on screen the alexa received a command symbol

I haven't found a comprehensive guide on what capabilities this skill has. Can someone share anything they may have found?

It does seem slow I agree but they were able to make this a Smart home device I wonder if we could do that.
