Question

Ugh Echo Speaks - why don't the actions EVER work? Opened a ticket 2 weeks ago and have had no help whatsoever from the dev. If I test the action, it works. If I then save it, it works once and never again. This is maddening.  

Answer 1

Which method did you use for install? The first time I tried using it I used the automated installer smartapp and I could never get Echo Speaks to work right so I uninstalled it. Recently I had a new scenario I wanted to use it for (announcing when my 3d printers finish) so I went back and installed through the manual process of going to the github site and copying and pasting the code and I've had zero issues using it with webcore -- I've had it installed for about a month now and every single time my two 3d printers finishes printing my Echo devices faithfully announce the printer is done.

@vague I actually did the opposite of what you did - installed through github first and then installed through community installer to keep it updated. The funny thing is that I have it working just fine through webcore, it's only the actions I have set up in echo Speaks that don't work. It's very strange.

@vague ive got it working just using a handler and smartthings app, seems ok for me
