Hi, I have Zigbee 3.0 devices from all kind of manufacturers, all of them works in SmartLife App very well. I want to control them via Alexa. I tried adding SmarLife Skill in Alexa but it keeps saying it can’t find any devices. Any help ? Thank you πŸ™πŸ½

I'm guessing that you have a Smart Life Zigby hub? Check the specifications of the hub to see if it works in the Smart Life app.

I have SilverCrest Zigbee hub. It’s from Lidl

It doesn't look like that hub supports Amazon Alexa. It only supports Google Home, and apparently there's an updated version that supports Apple HomeKit.

Thank you. Any suggestions on which hub to get to work with Alexa?

MOES has a Zigby hub. Otherwise, you might just be able to pick up an echo fourth generation and pair your devices directly with that.
