Brilliant in Alexa Smart Home Groups
If you add Brilliant Controls under a Smart Home Group as an "Alexa-Enabled Device", Alexa on your Brilliant can act intelligently on your request.
For example, say, "Lights on," when standing in the room that corresponds to your smart home group to control the devices in that group.
Make sure you are on the latest version of the Alexa app on your Mobile phone to enable this feature. For more information, please visit our guide for optimizing your Alexa Experience.
Please note: At this time, the iOS version of Alexa app lists the Brilliant Control as an Alexa-enabled Device available for use in groups. This is currently unavailable in the Android version of the Alexa app, but should be available soon.
