The main use case in our house for Alexa is sending announcements between rooms. But for a few months now, it hasn’t worked properly.
I will say: “Alexa, send an announcement”. But 50% of the time, instead of prompting me for the announcement, it will play me saying “Send an announcement” around the house.
I wonder if anyone else has had this issue, or if it’s just me?
Same, announcements are kind of flaky. My usual command is "Alexa, announce <whatever to announce>" - half the time she asks what I want to announce, 20% of the time she announces "announce", 30% of the time it works as expected.
If i'm already on my phone sometimes I'll just type the announcement in the Alexa app instead.
