As a standalone app, Voice in a Can runs entirely on the Apple Watch without needing to pair with the iPhone. With just a Wi-Fi or LTE connection you ask Alexa to control your home lights, unlock the door, or set your thermostat. However, since Apple prevents third party apps from replacing Siri, you can&#8217;t use Voice in a Can to have Alexa make calls or control the audio playback on your watch. It&#8217;s by no means a perfect solution, but it&#8217;s the best Alexa users have thus far until Amazon and Apple work out an official solution. <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/us\/app\/voice-in-a-can\/id1339696720?platform=appleWatch&amp;preserveScrollPosition=true#platform\/appleWatch\">Grab it now<\/a> on the App Store for $1.99.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":511,"featured_media":41725,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","format":"standard","tags":[651,214,602,273],"class_list":["post-41723","cool-stuff-found","type-cool-stuff-found","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-alexa","tag-apple-watch","tag-smarthome","tag-voice-control"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.4 (Yoast SEO v27.4) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>This $2 App Brings Amazon Alexa to Your Apple Watch - The Mac Observer<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Have an Apple Watch but rely on Amazon Alexa for home automation?
