In addition to proactive routines that play without a “wake word,” LifePod offers a “reactive” feature for music, news, weather and volume. Simply say, “Hello LifePod” followed by the desired requests outlined below. 

“Hello LifePod” Commands: 

To request music: 

“Hello LifePod. Play [insert artist or genre name].” 

To request the news: 

“Hello LifePod. What’s the news?” 

To request the weather: 

LifePod will report on local weather based on the care recipient’s zip code in their LifePod settings.

“Hello LifePod. What’s the weather?” 

 To stop any streaming content: 

 “Hello LifePod. Stop.” 

To pause music:  

“Hello LifePod. Pause.” 

To continue playing music: 

“Hello LifePod. Continue.” 

To change the volume: 

“Hello LifePod. Volume up.”

“Hello LifePod. Volume down.”
