Alexa app on iPhone can't find my light device #224

Alexa app can't find my light devices using the latest version of Espurna, I tested with different routers and I don't have an Alexa device to test with it.

any comments?

As far as my experience with the library goes, a physical alexa device ( atleast an echo dot ) is required for discovering devices. I would recommend you buy a basic echo dot and continue testing instead of changing routers.

Do you mean there is no way to set up this only with the Alexa app just like other Smart Devices?

I personally had tried to use only the alexa on mobile phone for a long time but the esp wasn't getting discovered at all. Only after I bought an echo dot it seems to work.
