Four Ways You Can Manage Your Laundry Using Alexa

The smart Virtual Assistant can do a number of things with human-like preciseness including managing your laundry in many ways.

There are several ways you can use Alexa to manage your laundry with ease and we list them down for you below:

Set Timers

Sometimes it is difficult to hear the buzzes of your washer or dryer which makes delays the laundry process a couple of minutes more than usual. You can get Alexa to notify you by setting the timers. To set the timers you have to know how long each load takes in your machine. Then tap onto Alexa app menu button, tap Routines and from there you can create a Routine.

By tapping on When This Happens in Routine, select Voice and type whenever you want to command Alexa to start the timer.

Next, tap Add action and select Wait. Adjust the amount of time your washer or dryer takes to complete one load of laundry and command Alexa to notify you when the time is up. Next time when you load your washing machine with your laundry, start the routine by saying the trigger phrase and Alexa will play her role accordingly.

Cleaning Tips

Enable the Laundry Buddy skill to get all the useful tips about cleaning. To attain the cleaning tips, first, ask Alexa to open the Laundry Buddy each time a question pops up in your mind and then ask your question.

However, the Laundry Buddy skill can’t answer specific questions about stains but it will give detailed answers on how to clean several other things like clothes, car seats, and jeans.

Go for Tide Stain Remover

The Tide Stain Remover skill acquires all the useful stain removing tips that can come handy at any time of the day. It has over 200 stain removing tips, all you have to do is command Alexa to provide you with the tips. You can say, “Alexa, tell tide I have an orange stain on my shirt.” And it will give you a number of options to get rid of the unwanted stain.

Let Alexa keep track

If you can’t remember the last time you washed your favorite pair of socks or jeans then next time have Alexa to remember it for you using the Laundry mate skill.

All you have to do is say, “Alexa tell Laundry mate I washed my (jeans, shirt or socks) today.” Now when you need a reminder, ask Alexa about the time when you washed that item.
