      Hi guys!

      Is there any chance to control the mirror (send notifications like “next_page” on MMM-pages) over google home (or alexa) over IFTTT or something?

        There is a module for IFTTT, you could try to use it. Of course you would need to evaluate these messages and act accordingly

            I know that it does not control the mirror. That’s why I said “evaluate and act”
            Use the IFTTT module, change it so it sends broadcast messages and make sure the modules of your interest react on these broadcast messages.
            The same with Alexa. You have to make sure Alexa has skills to interact with other modules on your magic mirror.
