Start the day well with Alexa Sleep Timer

When the alarm clock rings early in the morning, some early risers fish sleepily after the switch-off button. On the other hand, if you have set your alarm clock via Alexa voice control, you can simply turn off the alarm or activate the snooze function. The following voice commands show how this works:
