Alexa support?

[devan]

I have noticed that the Alexa Echo from Amazon comes set up with a few tasks managers.  The device is also remarkably popular right now.  

Any development on an Alexa skill for MLO?

Thanks,

+ 1 on this. I am new to Alexa...so unsure of it's available APIs. However, if there were a way to integrate it with MLO it would be a game changer. Specifically, I would like to add reminders as tasks (as with the native IOS reminders.

There is a simple solution to add new tasks with the help of Alexa to your MLO inbox: 

a) define an MLO email address - any email send to that address will show up in your inbox

b) define an IFTTT activity - trigger is "Alexa, add item to todo list" and as action you can use gmail to send to above address

c) Then use Alexa to add an item to your Alexa todo list.
