Flex TV Supports a LOT of commands. I mean a LOT. So many, that it's honestly a little difficult to document them all.

Below is my best attempt at recording what it can do, and some of the possible ways of saying things:


General Usage

To get your Google Home device to talk to Flex, you need to ask your Google assistant to talk to Phlex.

Starting Flex TV:
"Okay Google, talk to Flex TV"
or
"Hey Google, talk to Flex TV"
or
You can directly pass a command to Flex TV with
"Hey Google, tell Flex TV to ... Command"
