- What thermostat commands does Amazon Alexa support for TCC?
When using the skill, you need to specify by name which thermostat/sensor to use. There are two ways to define this/these names:
- Use the name(s) you set up already – these are shown in the TCC app and can be changed on http://mytotalconnectcomfort.com, or
- Create an Alexa group, like Bedroom or Downstairs, and add the thermostat and/or one or more sensors to the group. More information at http://amzn.to/2965dCE
Once you know the name or group of your thermostat, you can say the following:
Alexa, set [group or thermostat name] to X degrees.
Alexa, raise [group or thermostat name] by X degrees.
Alexa, lower [group or thermostat name] by X degrees.
You can also try variations, such as “raise [group or thermostat name] temperature” or “cool [group or thermostat name]”. - How do I integrate with the Amazon Alexa?

THX9321R1008 11/06/2008 - Is the Voice service an optional feature?
Yes it is, when you first update your app, you will receive a pop-up message asking if you would like to enable the Voice feature. Yes = Voice feature ‘on’ No = Voice feature ‘off’ The microphone icon in the upper right will be present in both cases, but will only work if Voice is ‘on’. When Voice is ‘off’, pressing the microphone button will provide instructions on how to turn Voice ‘on’
- Can I change the on/off setting of the Voice feature?
Yes. For iOS phones, you can adjust the on/off setting by navigating to Settings>Microphone>Thermostat. Once there, slide the top toggle from on to off as you like. For Android phones, you will need to delete the app and re-download it. Once re-download is complete, you will receive the initial permissions prompt described in question 1 above. Choose Yes or No as you like to enable or disable the Voice feature.
- Are there different ways I can use the Voice feature?
You can set the Voice functionality to work in one of three ways: 1. Voice ‘Shake to Talk’. Turn this feature on, and you can use the Total Connect Comfort app’s Voice listening mode without pressing buttons. With the Total Connect Comfort app open, simply shake the phone and the Voice listening prompt will activate. You can repeat this action multiple times, allowing you to naturally converse with the Voice feature. 2. Voice ‘Open App in Voice Mode’. Turn this setting on, and you can use Siri or Hey Google to open the Total Connect Comfort app’s Voice feature. Say ‘Thermostat’ or ‘Open Thermostat’ to your Siri/Hey Google, and the Total Connect Comfort app will open with the Voice feature in listening mode. 3. ‘Shake to Talk’ and ‘Open App in Voice Mode’ both on. Want minimal interaction to engage your home comfort? Having both these features turned on will allow you to check home comfort status, change temperatures, check the weather, all through voice commands.
- How does Voice work?
You must first engage the Total Connect Comfort app’s Voice feature in one of the ways described above. This will put the Total Connect Comfort app’s Voice feature into a listening mode, which you will recognize by an audio ‘’ping’ and a pop up listening visual. From there, the Voice engine was built to engage with you in that way real people talk. Ask questions, give instructions, and the Total Connect Comfort app’s Voice feature will respond. A list of phrases which can be used is below, and is also available within the Voice feature’s in-app tutorial.
If you want to change the temperature:
'Set to 64 degrees'
'Set to 77 degrees' (40-90 degrees)
'Make it 2 degrees warmer'
'Make it 7 degrees cooler' (1-10 degrees)
“Make it warmer / cooler”
“Make it much warmer / cooler”
“I’m feeling hot / cold”
For all of these changes, if your thermostat is on a schedule, it will stay at this new temperature (temporary hold) until the next scheduled period begins on the specified day.
If you want to get weather information:
'What’s the weather forecast?'
'What’s the temperature inside / outside?'
'What’s the humidity inside / outside?'
'What’s it like inside / outside?'
“What’s the temperature?”
“What’s the weather like?”
Your thermostat must be registered at myTotalConnectcomfort.com as the outdoor temperature/humidity/weather forecast is derived from the Internet. Indoor temperature/humidity as sensed by your thermostat

You can also press the 'What can I say?' button on the App.
If you want to change the system settings:
'Switch to heat / cooling'
'Switch the system to auto'
'Turn the system off'
'Turn the emergency heat on'
These changes require that you use touch on the app screen to confirm that you want to make the change.
If you want to change the fan settings
'Turn the fan on'
'Switch the fan to auto'
'Follow the fan schedule'
'Turn the fan circulation on'

'Call Resideo Customer Service'
'Switch to the Location Name + Thermostat Name' (E.g. 'Switch to the Home Bedroom.')
If your device has a phone, the app will switch to the phone application and dial the Resideo Customer Service number. - What is the value of the Total Connect Comfort app’s Voice feature?
