Hello @Fabioangeletti,

 

at which step of this guide do you get stuck exactly? https://www.sony.co.uk/electronics/support/articles/00186768

 

Is the app the only thing not showing up?

Hi @Fabioangeletti,

 

Welcome to the Sony Community too! In addition to the question that my colleague @IamNic has asked you, would it be also possible that you inform us on:

 

  • the current firmware revision of your TV. Press the [HELP] on the TV remote control to display this information.
  • the country where you are currently situated.

It just might be that the Alexa Skills for Sony Android TV control are not yet supported in your country and that is why you can't find the Alexa TV Control app in your HOME menu. I suggest you read carefully the notes about the availability of this new feature in the article my colleague posted already for you.

 

Cheers,

Dutchice

I'm afraid that as of the moment, Alexa Skills for Sony Android TV control are only supported in the UK.

That is the reason why the TV Control Setup with Amazon Alexa app is not showing in your Home screen. But since the feature is planned to gradually be supported in many more EU countries too, this might change very soon. I believe our colleague @rooobb from Italy could give you better updated information on this feature in your country.

 

Cheers,

Dutchice

In this post on the italian community you can find the latest information on Alexa from Sony and the list of devices supported. No information till now about availability of the service.
