  @Cristian-Dindinelli, great. Thanks for confirming. Samsung emailed me saying they're rolling out a new version of their app that fixes the issue. Apparently that's done now.

  @Murilo-Callegari, if you look at the Runs list for your command, it should say "Command ran" if the command actually ran on your computer.

  If you're worried the screen still didn't lock even though your "lock screen" command ran, you could have your "lock screen" script also check whether the screen is locked, and send that information to the Runs list using the ~/.TRIGGERcmdData/result.sh script.

  Just run ~/.TRIGGERcmdData/result.sh from your "lock screen" script with a status message like "Locked" or "Unlocked" as the parameter when you run result.sh.

  You can also have Alexa speak the "Locked" or "Unlocked" result if you add {{result}} to your command's Voice Reply field and use one the Conversational Alexa skills.

  This article has more about that.

  You can run commands on your computers with Siri using a Shortcut. Here's how:

  Download the Shortcuts app on your iOS device.

  Open this link or scan this QR code from your iOS device:

  Fill in the computer, trigger, and token fields. The params field is optional.

  In the shortcut's settings, tap "Add to Siri" and record your personal phrase.
