Roomie Voice Control Syntax

Roomie Voice Control is contained entirely within the app without any dependency on Alexa or Siri or any other system. Just use your iOS or macOS Controllers. Roomie Voice Control requires an Active subscription. When activated from Roomie’s Settings, the following syntax can be used. This feature is specific to each Controller, so you choose which iOS or macOS Controller listens for voice commands by activating it in Settings on that Controller. Roomie must be in the foreground to listen for commands. All commands begin with “Roomie”. If you do not specify a Room Name, the current room will be assumed.

  • watch/play/turn on/start/launch/activate/open/toggle {Activity Name} [in {Room Name}]
  • turn off/power off/system off/shutdown [in {Room Name}]
  • play/pause/stop/mute/unmute [in {Room Name}]
  • skip/replay/next/previous [# times] [in {Room Name}]
  • set volume {#} [in {Room Name}]
  • volume {up,down} [# times] [in {Room Name}]
  • tune {channel name or number}
