Launching the Garmin Skill

The Garmin® skill provides access to exclusive navigation features for your Garmin Speak™ device, including location searching, routing with turn-by-turn directions, traffic conditions, and more.

You can specify the Garmin skill as part of a request to the device, or you can start the Garmin skill before you make a request.

  • To use the Garmin skill directly in a request, start your request with Alexa, ask Garmin or Alexa, tell Garmin.

    For example, you can say phrases like these to request information from the Garmin skill:

    • Alexa, ask Garmin to take me to work.

    • Alexa, ask Garmin, where's the library?

  • To open the Garmin skill separately, say Alexa, open Garmin.

    The device prompts you to speak a request to the Garmin skill. You can say phrases like these:

    • Take me home

    • Find a nearby coffee shop
