Good Start. V5.5 Alex Integration – Somfy myLink Review

Setup worked without issue. I am able to control both Somfy devices and Somfy scenes via “Alexa, ask MyLink to open...”. But, the integration is not as a native device or scene, so it cannot be included as an Alexa routine. Thus You must issue individual commands to Somfy for your shades, and not, for example, “Alexa, good morning”, where Alexa opens the shades, turns the thermostat up, and turns on the lights, all with one command. And lastly my pet peeve still exists; the 2 hour limit on scheduling an event before or after sun rise or set. The Somfy team apparently do not understand a window facing the west! The new Alexa integration is nice, but I’m waiting for more.
