How to press keys

I've even tried an easier case just using a lower-case "m" to mute Youtube but it still doesn't work. What am I doing wrong here? { "Description": "Toggle Teams Mute", "ListenFor": "toggle teams mute", "Open": "Active Window", &qu...

Re: Alexa, tell my computer to... [NO IFTTT required]

Short update Thanks to ChatGPT, the skill's full functionality is now accessible in all languages supported by Alexa. German Spanish Italian French Japanese I've also made a how-to setup walkthrough which shows how to control your PC using the skill. https://youtu.be/8v0-WrBpBqQ?si=hxeWMlbsCv9AsV-P

Re: Alexa, tell my computer to... [NO IFTTT required]

Exciting update! I've discovered a scalable way of supporting a larger list of push alternate verbs such as "skip". So instead of push skip , a user can omit push , and simply say skip . There are two versions of intents I could use, one where simply the alt verb is sent, and one where th...

Re: Alexa, tell my computer to... [NO IFTTT required]

Update Added ability to repeat the last push easily. Note the distinction between this and the "repeat that" intent which prompts Alexa to simply repeat what it last said. The 'push again' intent invocations are currently the following. Let me know if you have any suggestions for invocati...

Re: Alexa, tell my computer to...

Update

Due to popular demand, I've added a toggle to the push intent's follow-up behavior. If you'd like Alexa to NOT ask "anything else?" after every push, simply tell it to "toggle follow-up mode". Moving forward, the skill's session will end after every push.

Re: The future of Push2Run - Google integration with IFTTT will be changing

As an Android user who prefers the Google Assistant, this change by Google is a disaster in the making for Push2Run. Using the alternative instructions, I tried to salvage the experience as best I can, but today I saw an email stating that IFTTT is only allowing free users no more than 2 applets. W...

Re: Alexa, tell my computer to...

Same. It really wrecked my flow when Google pulled the rug from under us like Google does. My apologies smay_lee. I've looked into re-making the skill for Google Home but apparently setting up the Alexa skill was a far easier endeavor and based on how long that took me, I just don't have the resourc...
