On-Demand Webinar

Voice and apps are moving closer together than ever before, especially as Alexa devices become more ubiquitous. While mobile apps and websites are great for providing detailed information, voice offers users fast and convenient solutions to many of their needs. Now you can create compelling voice-plus-app experiences that leverage the strengths of both modalities.

James Huang, Senior Project Manager for Amazon Alexa, will introduce you to the Alexa for Apps suite of developer tools, including an App Links API that lets you construct Shortcut commands for your app, as well as Send to Phone capabilities. If you don’t have time to code, the Shortcuts no-code builder allows you to create Shortcuts commands for mobile apps and websites, with no code required.
