Ratings and reviews

I've been using this app for quite some time. Recently, it's been hung up when it opens, leaving the screen blank and unresponsive. In addition, the Alexa button no longer connects directly did that you can state what action you want to take. I appreciate the ability to sync my lights with the echos and alarms. I've been able to automate several things.

For the most part, I like this app, but a couple of things drive me crazy. First, put back the one-click voice widget! The whole point of it is quick access to voice commands, and we shouldn't have to click again to activate the mic. I also hate seeing things that aren't relevant to me on the home page. Let me choose what to see there. I've also had a variety of phantom problems after upgrading one of my devices (a Cube). I'm about ready to reset the whole app and start over. Keep updating!

Whoever did the redesign must hate music. The music controls used to be one of the five buttons at the bottom of the home screen. Now there are only three and "Play" was shunted to a sub-menu. Thank you Amazon for assuming that this feature was unimportant to me and others. Also, the music page no longer displays all my linked Pandora channels like it used to, now only two appear. Also hate how the music features were removed from the browser version, which included a track history.
