Who is Alexa?

Alexa^† is Amazon’s^† cloud-based voice service. You can ask Alexa^† to answer questions, play music, deliver the news, get weather and traffic reports, control features of your smart home and more. The Alexa^† service is always getting smarter, both for features, and for enhanced-language understanding and accuracy. Because Alexa’s^† knowledge base is in the cloud, she continually learns and adds more functionality, every hour, every day.

What are Alexa skills?

Skills are voice-driven Alexa^† capabilities built by third-party developers. If you use an Alexa-enabled device^†, you can view available skills and enable or disable certain skills from alexa.amazon.com or the Amazon Alexa app^†. Once you have enabled a skill, you start using it by saying any of the commands listed below. Since Alexa is built into the cloud, she is always getting smarter.

What Alexa voice commands can I use?

With an enabled vehicle, all commands begin with “Alexa, ask Buick…” Finish the command with one of the phrases below:
• “…to start my vehicle.”
• “…to stop my vehicle.”
• “…to lock my vehicle.”
• “…to unlock my vehicle.”
• “…for help.”
• “…what vehicles are in my garage.”

What vehicles can I use with the myBuick® skill for Alexa?

Properly equipped Buick vehicles support the myBuick^® skill for Alexa^†. If your vehicle supports remote functionality on the mobile app, it will support the myBuick^® skill for Alexa^†. The available Buick Remote Access plan^† is required.
