Yes. When you set up your Smart Plug you had to give it a name. For instance, say the name was Living Room Light. To turn it on say "Alexa, turn on Living Room Light." That should do it. If you have multiple lights on smart plugs I believe that you will have to do them separately.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Definitely! I have schedule times for my lamps to turn on and off, but if I need them on because of a dark day or I want them off earlier than scheduled, I use the voice commands. I can say, "Turn off the office lamp" and just that one turns off. If I say, "Alexa, good night." all my lamps in the house turn off. It's fun coming up with cool routines like that.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes. During setup you will give the plug a unique name. The unique name is what Alexa uses to control the light. So if you name the light "lamp", you would say, "Alexa, turn on lamp".

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.yes you can if you have an Amazon device, i.e. dot/show/speaker etc... or if you enable the app to be able to respond to your voice through the settings on you rphone.
