For those of you that are Beta testers via the Google platform and want to test the build faster you can enrol at this link, as we’ve changed the tool to distribute the builds - if you haven’t done it already. If you already use the new tool, you’ll receive an app update with v.7.40.449.

I’ve tried 4x to install the latest beta, but receive an “Installation Failed” warning each time. In the past, when I’ve encountered this message, one or two retries would usually lead to success, but not this time.
Screenshots follow:

Do you recommend uninstalling the existing beta app and installing this one fresh?

CONFIRMED: Uninstalling the previous version and then downloading/installing .449 worked as expected. (Pixel 4)

Hi LibraSun. We checked internally and the upgrade process was successful. It can be a issue with App Tester on specific phones. Thanks for your feedback.

NEW FEEDBACK - Blank response from Alexa device

Using VeraMobile™ ver. .449 connected to my Edge, I issued a command instructing the Amazon Alexa device to “tell me a joke” and received this (text) response:

<Short audio>

NOTE: No actual audio was produced even with device volume above 0.

However, when I commanded her to “repeat that joke”, the ensuing response was empty (no text or sound):

Not sure what the expected behavior should be here, but “nothing” just felt wrong and inadequate in this context. Especially in light of the previous response (shown) wherein Alexa failed to disclose her name when specifically asked.

[oleg.macovei]

Thanks. I passed this bug to the QA team.

Hello,

Thanks for your report. We’ve started working on it. This is exceptional case that alexa only returns audio file for these command types. After our fix, you will hear the responses from the app.

Cheers,
