What is Reddit's opinion of Listens for Alexa?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

You can do this with an Android phone; https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.willblaschko.android.alexalistens

You can make any hotword you want for this and will access Alexa as if from your Echo.

You can on Android using Alexa Listens - you can have this set to any keyword you want. However, you'd have to make routines etc. play out of another echo device instead of the device you spoke to

I did find this android app that is supposed to enable Alexa to always listen on your Android phone, and yeah I could activate Alexa without opening the app, but only 10% of the time, so it's useless as well lol

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.willblaschko.android.alexalistens This one claims to work on Android Wear. However, I found it well after giving up on smart watches, so I didn't test it on one.

This app gives some of the functionality though it's more intended as a demo it does work. I couldn't get certain things to setup on it such as my Philips Hue lights. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.willblaschko.android.alexalistens

I did the Alexa integration on my little home system. (just one room with AVR and ~5 lights)

I only have a FireTV stick, but if you use a third-party app, you can send the voice controls that way. The app authenticates to the Alexa service, then it can send her commands from your phone's mic.

I used this one - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.willblaschko.android.alexalistens What I found the best about this is that it includes an Android Wear app. So I can control my house from my wrist. Slick.

Alexa through this app might work, but you'll likely be better off sticking to the Assistant.

Haven't tried this for a while but looks like it's had several updates so it now works in UK etc.

Use Listens for Alexa can use any hotword you like.

For those of you on Android, here's a similar app for WearOS that I use.

Could an app like this work? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.willblaschko.android.alexalistens

No idea how apps work in wearOS

I use Alexa from my watch with Listens for Alexa.

None of this Google Assistant silliness.

Haven't tried it but this app can supposedly do it:

Try Listens for Alexa.

I have is working on my watch. It's tied to one of my hardware buttons.

You could try this app with AndroidWear watches; I just installed it to check it out but haven't launched it yet so can't speak to it's effectiveness.
