Somna I’m Awake All Commands

This page shows the commands I’m Awake understands. You do not need to memorize them. Start with the simple commands first; the rest are optional ways to say the same thing.

Start here

Most people only need these commands.

Alexa, open I’m Awake Alexa, ask I’m Awake to browse presets Alexa, ask I’m Awake for the next preset Alexa, ask I’m Awake to use this preset Alexa, ask I’m Awake to play again Alexa, ask I’m Awake to turn on Partner Mode

Optional voice shortcut

If your Alexa device responds unexpectedly to “Alexa, I’m Awake,” you can create a voice shortcut:

Alexa, whenever I say I’m Awake, open the I’m Awake skill.

After that, saying:

Alexa, I’m Awake

will launch the skill directly.

Launch

Different Alexa devices may respond slightly differently. If one launch phrase does not work, try another.

Alexa, open I’m Awake

Other launch phrases:

Alexa, open I’m Awake Skill Alexa, launch I’m Awake Alexa, start I’m Awake
