To enable this:

This should complete the configuration. Additional information about connecting smart devices to Alexa is available [here](https://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html/ref=hp_left_v4_sib?nodeId=201749240).

PLEASE NOTE: Currently, Alexa does not support video streaming.

## Google Assistant

*   Go to Settings > Home control > press the Add New button, and select August
*   Enter your August account information to link your August account to Google 
*   To enable visitor announcements when someone rings your doorbell, select “Yes” when prompted to link your doorbell cam to the Google Assistant
