Yeah, Iāve read pretty much all of it before I realised that it wouldnāt have worked anyway until the last update. No other network issues are apparent apart from this one. All other aspects of my network appear fine. Unless itās the Alexa devices themselves. But many thanks for the advice and link.
Hopefully the Alexa Skill gets released for the UK soon. Good luck!

Any updates with this???
Just curious. Are UK users sending messages to Amazon to be sure theyāre properly pressured to get this done? If the approval process hinges on Amazon, the pressure needs to come from the Amazon customers wanting it, not just the Skill creators!
This is on us, not on Amazon. We have not resolved the issues yet.
Oh. I wasn't aware. We received different feedback previously.
Iāve just tried the Alexa app again today and it worked!! I didnāt do anything different and was very surprised it picked my devices up

Do you mean the "Amazon Alexa App" or the "Amazon Alexa Skill"?
The app, Iām in the UK.
It should have worked all along, except when we had removed it and you couldn't install it. Glad to hear it's working for you. One of these days we will get the skill sorted for UK.

I agree, but for some reason it didnāt. Love to know how it now has, but then again, just happy I have another part back.
This is quite disappointing. One of the reasons I purchased the hubitat was so that it could communicate with Alexa... I live in Australia, What are my options?
You should be able to use the āAmazon Echo Appā for now, until the āAmazon Echo Skillā is released in your country.

I couldn't wait any longer so ended up changing the country in Amazon Content & Devices from United Kingdom to United States. I was then able to install the Hubitat Skill and discover my HE devices.
Happy to report that it's working well here in the UK.
(I have a separate Amazon account for my Echo devices so was able to change this without having to make future purchases in US Dollars!)

UPDATE
Unfortunately I had to revert back to the UK Alexa Store as some music services (such as selected UK radio stations) were not available in the US Alexa Store.
My main gripe with the HE Echo App (whilst offering super responsive local control of my bulbs) is the lack of Colour (RGBW) support.
Is there an ETA for the Skill being completed for UK submission?

Can there please be an update with this? I remember being told it would be done within a week and that was well and truly over 3 months ago. Disappointing.

As a prospective Hubitat owner (and current ST owner) also in Australia I would also like an update on Alexa skill in English speaking counties. I only got an Echo Dot yesterday so Iām currently exploring what I can do with it.
Its now available for the UK, only happened yesterday I believe. Have you checked again today?
I searched for āhubitatā in the Alexa app just now but it found nothing. I only switched my Amazon account (which Iāve had since the late 90s) from the UK to Australia yesterday because of the local Alexa skills...the lack of the ST one (and hubitat) may see me switching back!
