To use the voice commands … I don’t know if this works as we don’t use Alexa voice commands.
To open TabloTV using Alexa voice control, simply say “Alexa, open Tablo” or “Alexa, launch Tablo”. You can also use voice commands to navigate within the app, such as “Alexa, go to recordings”. [1, 2, 3]
Here’s a more detailed explanation: [1, 2, 3, 4]
- Open the Tablo App:
- Use your Alexa device (e.g., Echo, Fire TV) to say “Alexa, open Tablo” or “Alexa, launch Tablo”.
- If you have a Fire TV, you can also press the Alexa or Microphone button on your remote and say “Tablo”.
- Navigate within the Tablo App:
- Once the Tablo app is open, you can use voice commands to navigate within the app.
- For example, say “Alexa, go to recordings” or “Alexa, play [channel name]”.
- Ensure Tablo App is Installed:
- Make sure the Tablo app is installed on your Fire TV or other device that you are using to control it with Alexa.
- You can find and install the app by searching for “Tablo” on the Amazon Fire TV app store.
- Alternative Voice Commands:
- You can also use more general commands like “Alexa, search for [movie/TV show]” or “Alexa, find [title/genre/actor]” to find content within the Tablo app.
