deadline.com:

Dade Hayes Finance EditorAmazon has expanded the Routines feature of its Alexa voice system to Fire TV, giving users an enhanced level of control in their smart-home entertainment experience.Routines, which were introduced in 2017, tie multiple actions to a single voice command.

With the new setup, for example, Amazon FireTV users can say, “Alexa, I’m getting a snack” and Fire TV content will pause and smart lights can turn on.

When they report, “Alexa, I’m back,” Alexa will respond, “OK – now back to your show,” turn the lights back off and resume programming.Routines can be customized to include actions like powering on or off a TV, opening a specific app, or playing, pausing or resuming particular titles.
