I like sharp tools for album art and what not but it’s a subscription service. Action tiles so far has me satisfied. Using a Fire HD 8 wall mounted.

@kraft No workaround for it then ?

@collector not sure. You have to follow some close steps to avoid activating it on Amazons servers. I think it has to be activated to Amazon in order to use the service since it pings Amazon for voice AI data.

I personally like a one time fee instead of a monthly/yearly fee. Plus actiontiles works on all devices and linked to your hub.

Think ST is a little smoother on the UI, and a bit more features, plus the rules engine if you like that vs webCoRE etc. but for most it comes down to do I want to pay once, or annually.

AT. I don't tend to use subscriptions when I can avoid it.

Besides the payment/subscription model - ST clearly wins, having the rule engine and variables powerful tools
