A Wi-Fi network is available for access to Amazon services.
An Amazon Echo smart speaker is prepared, for example, the Echo, Echo Tap, or Echo Dot.
An Amazon account is registered. If you do not have an Amazon account, register one.
The Smart Life app or your OEM or SDK-based app is in use and an account of either app is created.
Your app account is bound with at least one smart device. The device name is simple, for example, “bedroom light”.
If you have logged in to the app and bound a device with the app, and the device is named in English, you can skip the steps in this section.
Scan the following QR code to download the Smart Life app.
You can also download the Smart Life app from Apple’s App Store or other app stores.

This section describes how to configure Amazon Echo in the Alexa mobile app. The configuration procedure is similar for the Alexa web application.
Prerequisites:
The Echo is powered on.
The Echo is connected to a Wi-Fi network over which Amazon services are accessible.
Procedure:
Open the Amazon Alexa app.
Enter the Amazon account and password, and tap SIGN IN.
After successful login, in the bottom right corner of the Home page, tap More > Add a Device, and on the SETUP page that appears, select the Amazon Echo brand.
Select your Echo device type and tap CONTINUE to configure the Echo.
When the page Wait for the orange light appears, press and hold the action button until the light ring turns orange. Tap CONTINUE to connect the mobile phone to the hotspot of the Echo, and tap CONTINUE.
Select a Wi-Fi network to which the Echo will be connected. Enter the Wi-Fi password and tap CONNECT. It takes several minutes for the Echo to successfully connect to the Wi-Fi network.
Then, tap CONTINUE. A video walkthrough appears to help get you started. At the end of the video, tap NEXT to navigate to the Home page of Alexa. Now, the Echo is configured.
The Echo needs to discover a device before it can control the device. The device discovery page automatically appears after the Smart Life skill is bound. Tap DISCOVER DEVICES to search for devices. You can also say to the Echo: “Alexa, discover devices.” Then, the Echo starts searching for smart devices that are paired with the Smart Life app. The Echo reports the search result about 20 seconds later and the Alexa app displays the discovered devices in a list.
You can use the DISCOVER DEVICES feature to discover only the devices that have been added to the Smart Life app. Other unpaired devices cannot be discovered and added to the Echo.
If a device is renamed in the Smart Life app, the Echo must discover the device again. Otherwise, it cannot control the device.
Now, you can use the following commands to control a device, such as a bedroom light:
Alexa, turn on/off bedroom light. (turn on or off the device) percent. (set the brightness)
Alexa, brighten/dim bedroom light. (increase or decrease the brightness)
Alexa, set bedroom light to green. (set the color)
Alexa, set bedroom light to warm white. (set the color temperature)
Alexa, set air conditioner to 24°C. (set the temperature of an air conditioner or a heater)
To check the full range of voice commands supported by the device, go to Tuya Developer Platform > Product > Voice Platform > Voice Integration.
