Olathe, Kansas (PRWEB) April 26, 2016 -- Blumoo Smart Control has now linked technology with the Amazon Echo to provide yet another convenient option for users to control their home theater equipment from their personal devices.
Blumoo, the always accessible remote control that has given users the ability to quickly control all their home theater equipment right from their iOS or Android phones, tablets, and even Apple Watch is making home-control even quicker and easier through a voice-activated option for iOS owners.
By adding in Alexa Voice Services, Blumoo now enables their users one more option to quickly and effectively control all their home theater devices – simply by saying commands with their voice. Blumoo’s voice commands can be initiated and sent to the Blumoo HomeBase through the Amazon Echo or Fire TV Voice Remote.
This new feature will be automatically updated on the Blumoo iOS mobile application and is now available to all Blumoo owners. Users simply select what devices they want to control in the Blumoo iOS Mobile Application and can just speak the commands through the Echo.
When using an Amazon Echo to translate the voice commands to Blumoo, the user can say things like:
• “Alexa, tell Blumoo to turn on the TV”
• “Alexa, tell Blumoo to press mute”
• “Alexa, tell Blumoo to switch to channel 50”
• “Alexa, ask Blumoo to describe what’s on channel 50”
Anything users can control through a remote can now be done simply with voice.
