Trim Audio to Items of Variable Length Using New Features in APL for Audio (beta)

Trim Audio to Items of Variable Length Using New Features in APL for Audio (beta)

Ever wish you could add background audio to an Alexa response and have it dynamically trimmed to the appropriate length? Ever wish you could repeat an audio clip over and over again?

You want to share your beautiful APL document with the world, but photos taken with a phone don't look so nice? Try the device simulator: bit.ly/32Ktutl simply load the Authoring Tool Export and take a screenshot or video @alexadevs #apl #madewithlove

Replying to @alexadevs
@alexadevs @APLthemes @germanviscuso @marktucker @Arjung to all of you Alexa APL developers: are you tired of looking up device specific information regarding screen resolution, APL version, touch/browser support? Why not ask the device itself for its properties?

Wow, congratulations @vocalaco this is seriously impressive! A glimpse into the future of voice first games. Just the hardware that needs to catch-up now...it crashed on my Echo Show 10.
German Viscuso (@germanviscuso) profile pictureGerman Viscuso@germanviscuso12 Jun 2020
I just saw @vocalaco Brain Games and it's amazing! This is a #FireTV optimized Alexa game that uses our Web API for Games :) If you're in the US or the UK please give it a shot by saying “Alexa, open Brain Games Skill” smile.amazon.co.uk/Vocala-co… #VoiceGames @alexadevs

Ran into a problem the other day working on my secret #alexa project. Problem turned into a great #vux conversation. Conversation turned into a #VUXcellence blog post: 3po-labs.com/blog/vuxcellenc…. Fair warning, it's a deep dive, and long even by my standards. @alexadevs #voicefirst

Batch test audio files to measure Automatic Speech Recognition accuracy using the ASR Evaluation tool. It's an involved process but could be useful for some. developer.amazon.com/en-US/d… #alexadevs #alexa @alexadevs

Amazon adds #Alexa powered voice interface to it's shopping app. You can now search items, track deliveries and do much more using simple voice commands. As an added bonus, it can also run Alexa Skills.

Alexa usage the past 3 months measured through Skill utterances. Almost a 100% increase in Alexa Skill traffic the past 30 days during self-quarantine. Measured by the 6K Alexa Skills hosted with @voiceflow .

Seeing more and more of this. Are ads in flash briefings US only? Or are these examples just pilot tests that Amazon are doing?

Opening Skills remotely could have some interesting use cases

You can start a skill on your smartspeaker with a click on a button in your Alexa app. Is this a new feature? Can you use this functionality on your website as well? @alexa99 @alexadevs #deeplinks #skilllinks #Alexa
