Any idea why this could be happening?

Ask your child!

Some twonk has told it to to wind you up. We had a 'friend' do this to our Alexa at a dinner party and we just couldn't stop the bloody thing we had to get a replacement in the end dh was so not amused.

Oh yes the Alexa fart noises. So many timed an accompaniment to my work meetings during lockdown 😀 thanks kids.

yourstroobly · 26/08/2021 18:38

Omg i didn't even know this was a thing

HappyBirthdayMrPresident · 26/08/2021 18:40

Me neither how do you get her to do it ? This appeals to my immature sense of humour 🤣

Emmelina · 26/08/2021 19:05

My kids found this hilarious when they discovered she could do it 🙄 it gets old very quickly!! You can set them on a timer and everything. I think to stop it you just have to ask her to do something else.

Alexa won’t do more than 100 farts in a row I think (obviously my DC asked her to do a million) 🙄

EarringsandLipstick · 26/08/2021 19:24

Yes the timer farts appealed massively to my DC, and rather less so to me!

Cryalot2 · 26/08/2021 19:42

Someone has set her to do this. Possibly as a joke she has been set to do this for a period .
You could try telling her to stop. If that fails go to your phone ( or a gadget she is linked to) go into the settings and stop that way.
I admit I have set ours up on dd and found it funny.Halo

Dd loves this function (sadly).

All you do is stop it on the app. Or switch it off. Not sure why you had to replace it

No kids and DP not responsible. Just asked her nicely to turn a lamp on (which is the only thing she does around here) and off she went.

Off she went. 🤣🤣

I found that hilarious.

😂

Check your routines in the app and see if it's been set to do that when you turn the lamp on.

IHateFlies · 26/08/2021 21:36

I don’t know which is worse - Alexa farting or miaowing like a cat. Dcs are fans of both much to my annoyance.

Gallowayan · 26/08/2021 21:39

Thanks for your replies . All quiet now so fingers crossed. Could be revenge because I called her a bitch the other day.

Alexa’s either been on the cooking Sherry or she’s rebelling....
Yesitsbess · 26/08/2021 21:45

Have you checked the thread "small things you have done to annoy someone"?

so much Alexa pettiness on there

You may have annoyed someone Grin

OverByYer · 26/08/2021 21:47

So glad I don’t have one. Not much help sorry .

SisterMaryFunsponge · 28/08/2021 20:09

You need to treat your robot servants with more respect. But I’ll still pray for you. Hussy.
