Hi everybody,
I bought a couple of Voice Previews and was wondering whether this was possible; please note I use German language, so perhaps I am just not using the right phrases…?
- query timer
If I set a timer via OK Nabu, Timer auf 5 Minuten
, it will set a 5 minute timer. While there is visual feedback on the device itself (the LED ring), I cannot figure out how to ask how much time is left.
With Alexa, I’d say Alexa, wie lange noch
, which doesn’t translate to OK Nabu
, neither do OK Nabu, wieviel Zeit ist übrig
(how much time is left), Timer Restzeit
(timer remaining time), or any other variation of this that I could think of.
- stop timer in advance
When there is an active timer and I say OK Nabu, stoppe timer
(stop / cancel timer), I just get the I don't understand
reply. I have tried numerous variants here as well, but none worked.
So if there is an active timer, I need to wait for it to trigger the alarm on my Voice device, then say OK Nabu
(nothing else), then the alarm stops. But it’d be nice not having to wait, for example, when it was a short timer and I can tell it is almost over - then I’d prefer just canceling it in advance.
Can this be done somehow?
OR is there a way to access these timers somehow? If so, I could create custom sentence triggers to query them and / or stop them, which would work fine also.
Thank you in advance for your ideas
