Can a routine triggered by “When you say” be triggered by another routine which is triggered by time-of-day? I’m stumped.
I use several voice-command routines, but I want to run them triggered by time without having to duplicate them and maintain duplicate routines.

Hi Charles,
This is a really interesting one! I would say that having a routine trigger another routine may be possible, based on what others online have stated
I saw some instructions that you might want to try out:

I saw some instructions that you might want to try out:
- Create a new routine
- Provide name and condition when it is to happen
- Select Add action
- On the Add New screen select Custom
- Type in the command ”enable (name of routine) routine”
- Tell Alexa “enable <routinename> routine”.
Note of caution : apparently, you can only issue a command once in a routine.
Hope this helps, and please report back if this worked.
