# Works With Garageio

### Works With Garageio

[Amazon Echo](http://www.amazon.com/echo) is designed around your voice. Its far-field voice recognition hears you from across the room and lets you control your connected home devices without lifting a finger, Garageio included!

### Controlling Garageio with Your Echo

You can control many of Garageio’s features by speaking directly to your Amazon Echo. Here are a few of the things the Garageio app can help with:

TO CLOSE YOUR GARAGE DOOR, SAY:

“Alexa, tell Garageio to close my door”

TO OPEN YOUR GARAGE DOOR, SAY:

“Alexa, tell Garageio to open my door”

TO CLOSE YOUR GARAGE DOOR BY NAME, SAY:

“Alexa, tell Garageio to close Lauren’s Door”

TO OPEN YOUR GARAGE DOOR BY NAME, SAY:
