Voice control makes your smart products even easier to use. It provides the flexibility of hands-free control, which is great for when your hands are full or when you can’t reach for your phone or tablet. With simple voice commands, you can access a wide range of features, such as adjusting the brightness of your lights, turning your lights on or off, or activating scenes.

To control your Mercator Ikuü products via Amazon Alexa, follow the steps below. For voice control via Google Assistant please click here. To follow the steps below you will need an Amazon account and your Mercator Ikuü username and password.
