I have been reading about the new routines available on Alexa, Sunset/Sunrise schedules and scheduling something to happen after an alarm which all sounds great. I have seen several sites (https://voicebrew.com/alexa-day-30/alexa-routine/) and youtube clips showing how to set these up however I dont seem to have the new options? Are the coming to the Uk later or am I doing something wrong? Any help would be much appreciated.

Hello grant_alan,
Welcome to the digital and device forum!
I am sorry you having this issue.
To create a Routine in the Alexa app on your mobile device:
Go to the menu and select Routines.
Select the + icon in the top right corner.
Select When This Happens, and then choose how to trigger the Routine. For sensor routines, select your installed motion or contact sensor.
Select Add action, and then choose which action it completes. To receive a push notification when a motion or contact sensor is triggered,select Send notification.
Under From, select which device controls the routine.
Tap Create.
Tip: To modify or delete a Routine, go to the Routines section in the Alexa app. Choose a Routine listed in the Enabled section to make your changes.
Many thanks for your reply however it is the option for sunset/sunrise time options for routines and scheduling things to happen after alarms I am missing. I can create normal routines fine.

I completely understand the frustration. Updates are released in batches, over several weeks or months. If you do not have access to this feature as of yet, please continue to check your Alexa app for it's arrival in the near future!

Hey there, grant_alan!

What version of the app do you have?
My Android app is 2.2.282325.0
The alarm dismissed routines are available.
Can't see any sunset /sunrise parameters though.
