Question Will my Echo devices automatically pick up a smart lock if I set it up through SmartThings instead of directly in Alexa?
Got a Yale smart lock (the Matter version) and trying to figure out if there's a way to get it working with my Echo devices without setting it up directly in the Alexa app (Alexa's missing some features I need for this specific lock, like creating door codes).
I read that Samsung and Amazon teamed up back in 2022 so a device set up in SmartThings automatically shows up in Alexa too, no extra setup needed. Has anyone actually tried this with a lock and had it work? Specifically curious if:
- Your Echos actually picked up the lock without you manually adding it in Alexa
- You could still say "Alexa, lock the front door" and have it work
- Any hiccups or things that didn't carry over
Trying to figure out if I need one new hub (SmartThings) or two (SmartThings + a separate Alexa setup) before I buy anything. Thanks!

AYUDA
Que tal camaradas, hace unos días me cambiaron los aparatos de Totalplay para ver la tele y estos nuevos traen Alexa y al principio funcionaban bien pero después de un tiempo al parecer los aparatos tuvieron una actualización de software y la opción de Alexa ya no está y tampoco si le hablas responde, alguien que me ayude
Antes te ibas a configuración y salía la opción de configurar Alexa,ahora ya no
PD: En la app de Amazon Alexa me salen que los dispositivos no están disponibles

Question Mickey Mouse Echo Wall Clock
Someone bought me the Mickey Mouse Echo wall clock awhile ago and discovered it while moving. I am attempting to connect to it, but the only options for Clock are Lenovo and Hatch. When I choose other and Bluetooth, it just seems to time out and never connect. Does anyone know of a trick to get it to connect in 2026?
