Recently our Smart Hub skill has had a name change due to our rebrand. It
used to be called the NCBI Smart Hub and the voice command was "Alexa,
launch My NCBI". But now we are Vision Ireland, so our Smart Hub skill is
known as the Vision Ireland Smart Hub.
You can launch the My V I skill by saying "Alexa, launch My V I". To access
all features of the My VI skill such as membership to the library for
talking newspapers it is necessary to link the skill to your myVI account.
To read more about linking your account and enabling the skill check out

Listening to V I Live radio
To listen to the Vision Ireland Online Radio service, open the V I skill by
saying "Alexa, open myVI" or "Alexa launch myVI". When the skill is open it
will read out the menu. You can listen to the full menu, or you can
interrupt it with a voice command such as "Alexa, listen to V I live radio".
Now the radio will start playing with a selection of our recently published
podcasts, advocacy talks, and a weekly Vision Sports update.
If you are an owner of an Amazon Alexa smart speaker, give this a try and we
hope you enjoy the content.
The SmartHub skill has been nominated for a 2024 National Digital Award and
was highlighted by Amazon's CTO at a recent Amazon AI Conference - myNCBI
