Not able to order Alexa deals
CoffeeDaddio
Was really looking for a way to order Alexa's daily deals while away from home. Unfortunately when I tried I get "Alexa deals are not supported by this device". Dev's really should update their product info since it states you can do this on their webpage...
Doesn't play music
missywilky
I downloaded this with the sole purpose to control my music (i.e. Amazon music) via Alexa while I drive, but it unfortunately doesn't work. "Amazon music is not supported on this device." "Audible is not supported on this device."... shame.

I think Amazon needs to incorporate Amazon Music and then this thing will really take off!
Voice control for Logitech Harmony Hub
George Antrobus
UPDATE: Despite the cool functionality described below, I have changed my rating and uninstalled this app. After experiencing a warm phone and rapid battery discharge for several days I discovered that this app was responsible for consuming 79% of my power budget over a seven day period despite only occasional use. Original review follows... With the Harmony skill set for Alexa installed Astra provides voice control for the Harmony Hub (something Siri can't do because the Harmony Hub is not HomeKit compatible.) Establish context by saying, "Tell Harmony...", then start and stop activities ("Turn on TV", "Turn on Apple TV", "Turn off TV", etc.), tune to favorite TV channels ("Turn on CNN", "Turn on Comedy Central", etc.), and adjust volume by a preconfigured delta ("Volume up", "Volume down".) Works like a champ.
