can this model open and control apps?

Hi Do I need to have a SmartThings hub to control the TV via Alexa ? Or can I control it only with Alexa echo dot ?

Yes, that’s how Alexa connect to the TV

Tech Steve Thanks a lot.

will it work with the 5 series?

You’re welcome Merson 👍🏽

Thanks Viktor

how do you get alexa to go to a particular app, such as KZfaq, on the tv. I am unable to do this

Apple airplay

No, it’s kinda lame 😒

It only works with the built in tuners

Nope not via smart apps unless they have updated since the video

Nope, that’s how they connect

it doesn’t work on all models, Samsung website will show if it Alexa Compatible

It’s hit and miss, the wifi disconnect after a while when the TV is in stand by.

nope legit basic controls like volume channel and on or off nothing else

What if connect echo dot to fire stick can it control their apps there? Like KZfaq,Plex , etc?

You have to have a model that has it built in

As a Bluetooth speaker

Which account? If its the Google Home, just revoke it from the home app. support.google.com/googlenest/answer/7126338?co=GENIE.Platform%3DAndroid&hl=en

I already figured it out thank you

Tech Steve samsung tv NU7300 compatible with alexa?

When i did the video i turned off then on, come to find out that when the tv is off for longer periods it disables the wifi, so the assistances software can’t locate the tv because it’s temporary off line. 🤔 Wifi thread: us.community.samsung.com/t5/4k-8k-and-Other-TVs/Issues-with-WiFI-connection-Smart-TV/td-p/353440

@@TechSteve so this is clearly samsung issue.. Do you believe the company can fix this with a firmware update?

Since I don’t work for them, I really wouldn’t know. You can try to plug in a network cable, it might work but I’m working on another project so I don’t that the time at the moment to test.

@@TechSteve ok thx very much for your time..

Go into the wrong account and deauthorize the skill in the app. Then start over

make sure it's on the same wifi

It is but it doesn t work because my tv is UE43j and I think it's not supported. I entered in samsung smartthings and that model isn't compatible with my tv

I am from the Caribbean Barbados ,the app is available for my country. I’m useing a VPN but it’s still not working.😞

If you're in a qualified country it could be your device, you can try the web site from a computer alexa.amazon.com/

It doesn’t work good

@@TechSteve thank you.

You have to buy a Samsung with build in Alexa even then it’s easier to just use the remote

Because some TVs goes into standby mode and the internet disconnect.

🤔 it’s the one that came with the TV

@@TechSteve but we get the smart remote right with it

Sounds like a different model

What model is your remote?

The wifi disconnects when in standby mode,

@@TechSteve Thank you but do can i fix this ?

I have the same problem , what shoul I do ?

@@TechSteve how do you fix this
