  1. Cortana no longer unlocks doors


    I have a Kwikset deadbolt that I was able to lock and unlock with Cortana and my Wink2 hub. If I saw some I know approaching my front door, I could say “Cortana, unlock the front door”. Now she says “ It looks like you are trying to use a smart home device”. The lock still works with the Wink app on iOS.

    :)

    In order to enable the Notebook icon in Cortana, I suggest you to check if you have enabled Cortana.

    To enable Cortana, please follow the steps below:

    • Go to Cortana.
    • Go to Settings.
    • Turn on “Cortana can give you suggestions, ideas, reminders, alerts”.

    Hope this helps.
