Can you start a specific cycle ? I’ve got same machine in graphite and it’s connected to SmartThings and Alexa connected. But not sure how helpful on or off is if I need to turn it on by hand to enable smart control
Hey, is it also possible to not only turn the machine on but also start a cycle like for towels and also switch the temperature? Do you know what's the command for that?
Hi fantastic video again just wondering what is the model of this Samsung washing machine I am my Hoover washing machine meant to be smart and it wasn’t when I asked Alexa to switch on the washer on she couldn’t switch it on my insurance had written my Hoover washing machine off
Just a shame you have to turn Smart Control on first. You still need to set it to be automated and might as well use the app to start the cycle once connected anyways. I’ve found Alexa is only helpful when you’re at home sat down and your phone is out of reach. The smart things app works better to go out then start the cycle when you’re out. It’s more a novelty. If you’ve pressed the Smart Control button speaking to Alexa saves you little to no time compared to pressing the start button.
For some odd reason I’ve noticed if you leave it named as washing machine it struggles responding whereas a custom name it has no problem turning it off and on 👍🏽

Hi Giovanni depends with where you are located. Models vary on location. Most 2021-2022 Samsung models have this function
I believe not every washing machine is compatible, right? What is the model of that one, please?
most of the new ones that look like these have smart control
Is it possible to announce on the alexa when washing is finished?
dont think so yet
@@askmrwashywashy Yes it is. In the Alexa app (on your phone), there's an option to turn on an announcement when your washer/dryer is done.
