View Your Blink Cameras on Fire TV with Alexa

Using Alexa voice commands, you can access the Smart Home Dashboard to view your connected Blink cameras.

Before you begin, verify that you have enabled the Blink SmartHome Alexa skill.

To access a live view of your Blink camera or video doorbell on your Fire TV device, say:

"Alexa, show my Smart Home Dashboard."

Your connected Blink cameras will appear in the camera row on the Smart Home Dashboard.

Note: The dashboard also displays other Alexa-compatible smart home devices, such as smart lights, plugs, switches, and devices you’ve favorited from the Alexa app.
