In an effort to make driving as seamless as possible, Hyundai has integrated Amazon Alexa into its Blue Link app. While the app already makes it easier for users to warm their car or lock it remotely, now these features can be controlled with nothing more than a few simple voice commands.
The newly updated Blue Link app allows users to ask any Alexa-enable device to carry out different commands related to their vehicle. This includes starting the engine or warming the car to an exact temperature on a frosty morning. Alexa also allows users to control the lights on their car or the sound of the horn with nothing more than their voice. These features can also be protected with a PIN, so that drivers do not have to worry about their children or others using voice commands to control their vehicle.
Compatible with all 2017 Hyundai models and a number of 2016 and 2015 models, the newly updated Blue Link app is a convenient tool for drivers who are constantly pressed for time.
