What if I have more than one Amazon Account?
#
If you have multiple Amazon accounts with devices on each one, maybe the one in your home and the one in your parents home, you can simply perform a second complete install of the app and Heroku server. This will allow you to find all of your devices and they can be used in your SmartThings automations.
Why doesn't playText() command work in other apps?
#
The playText() command found on devices with the "Media Player" capabily usually is looking for a url to the mp3 generated for the text message. The issue is that Amazon doesn't allow mp3 playback on the echo's with out a custom skill.
