# How can I connect Tasmota devices to Alexa
Just enable a Emulation. The device will be found in Alexa App
(Use Belkin for one relay or HueEmulation for one ore more relays and lights)
To control a Tasmota device with Alexa, enable emulation (Configure Other on the Tasmotat web UI).

Since Version 6.5.0.9 (development) light control is not on/off and dimming only. You can control color via Alexa now.
Enable HueEmulation in Tasmota and do a device discovery in Alexa App. No skill needed. Select Hue Bridge V1 as device.
HueEmulation does not support sensors
Use `Belkin WeMo` for devices with a single relay or `Hue Bridge` for devices with one or more relays or for lights. Tasmota devices will be discovered by the Alexa app.
For control of lights, color control (introduced in version 6.5.0.9 (development)), on/off, and dimming is supported. Enable `Hue Bridge` emulation in Tasmota and perform a device discovery in the Alexa app. No skill needs to be added to Alexa. Select Hue Bridge V1 as the device type.
**Note: Hue Bridge emulation does not support sensors.**
