Thanks! Great work. Last_called updates instantly now.

Now that this works, I like to know if it’S necessary to use delays to give it time to update.

- alias: Alexa Routine washing machine
  initial_state: 'on'
  trigger:
    platform: state
    entity_id: input_boolean.alexa_routine_wash
    to: 'on'
  action:
    - service: homeassistant.turn_off
      entity_id: input_boolean.alexa_routine_wash
    - delay: "00:00:02"
    - service: alexa_media.update_last_called 
    - delay: "00:00:01" #not sure about the delays?
- service: homeassistant.turn_on
  data_template: 
    entity_id: >
      {% if is_state("binary_sensor.wash_state", "on") %}
        script.alexa_routine_wash_on
      {% else %}
        script.alexa_routine_wash_off
      {% endif %}

So what do you think, would it be fast enough to use this without delays?

EDIT: I cant’t finde it know, but there was a thread where two people wanted to use the voiceprofil in alexa and it wasn’t available for german users than. I think it was @ReneTode @lonebaggie and/or @PlayedIn. Am I right?
Voice profiles are now available in german too. (EDIT 2: I probably confuse it with this topic Alexa Announce Feature - Text to Speach via Alexa now a possability?)

Would be interested in what you want or can do with it (together with ha)
