Use this skill to have Alexa assist with step-by-step instructions while performing the task, such as replacing a faucet, assembling furniture, or following cooking recipe. Enter instructions by telling Alexa each step, one by one, in sequence, and when finished, tell Alexa to start from step one. Alexa will then repeat each step as requested. After finishing a step, ask Alexa for the next step by saying "Next". Repeat the step by saying "Repeat", or go back to the previous step by saying "Previous". When finished just say "Stop".
This skill requires permission to read and write your lists. The skill will create a custom list titled "AlexWalkMeThrough" for easy access and edit on your Alexa account. The list can be delete at any time by saying "Alexa, ask Walk Me Through delete task."
