Add Alexa commands in other languages

Voiceitt Smart Home can recognize commands in any language. Here's how to set up commands in languages other than English.

Changing the language to Spanish, German or English (UK)

Changing the language to any other non-English language

Changing the language to Spanish, German or English (UK)

There are a couple ways you can add non-English commands to your dictionary. You can edit the built-in commands to change the language or you can create new commands from scratch.

Editing built-in commands:

1. Click on the dictionary tab and then the blue button in the left hand corner to access your scenarios.

2. Click into any scenario that you would like to translate the commands it contains.

3. Tap a command in the dictionary that has not been trained yet. 

   

4. Tap "Edit."

   

5. Change the command in both of the boxes to German, Spanish or English (UK).

   
6. Click the "Try it" button to make sure Alexa responds.
7. Click save and train the command to recognize your unique pronunciation.

Create your own command:

1. Click on the dictionary tab and then tap "Smart Home" at the top to access your Smart Home scenarios.

2. Click into any scenario except Getting Started. This specific scenario doesn't allow you to add any custom commands.

3. To add a new command, click the blue plus sign on the bottom right hand corner.

   

4. Type in the command you would like to say and what you would like Voiceitt to send to Alexa in German, Spanish or English (UK).

   1. You do not need to write “Alexa” anywhere in the command.
