Android Central Question

I have an Amazon Echo Spot (and I'm loving it) I have set up a re-occurring daily alarm to go off at 5.30am (every weekday)

I also have a smart bulb set up and I can control it through Alexa (it works great)

The question I have is - Is there anyway that I can get Alexa to turn on my light when I tell Alexa to stop my alarm in the morning?

Thanks in advance
 
Not natively. You can ask Alexa 'chained' commands, like 'Stop my alarm and turn on the light', but not on a single command. The only way to do that is with a 3rd party plugin like IFTTT, but you'd have to use a different command to stop the alarm since you're doing this through IFTTT. Basically you set a 'recipe' of 'when I say this, then do that and that and that and whatever else you want done'. (That's why it's IFTTT... If This, Then That).
