WITH ALEXA
The planned Municiply skill would bring your village’s information to Alexa. Residents could use an Echo or the Alexa mobile app on a supported phone.
No Echo required. No separate Municiply app.

Sign in to Amazon if needed, then enable the skill.
Confirm your village and collection zone, if required.
Open the skill, then ask about your community.

One shared Municiply skill. Information from the right community.03 / THE RIGHT PICKUP DAYS
For collection questions, residents also choose their service area. Answers would use that zone’s official calendar and any holiday changes published by the village.

ON YOUR IPHONE
Add a ready-made shortcut to Apple Shortcuts. Then ask Siri by its name. There’s no separate Municiply app to download.
Use the shortcut link on your iPhone.
Review the ready-made shortcut, then add it.
Complete any village or collection-zone setup.
For example: “Hey Siri, Ask My Village.” Then say your question when prompted.
HomePod would need additional setup and compatibility testing. This iPhone shortcut preview does not confirm HomePod support.
ANOTHER WAY TO STAY CONNECTED
We’re planning an Android experience to bring your village’s information closer to the phone you already use.
More details will follow as the experience takes shape.
THE EVERYDAY QUESTIONS. A LITTLE EASIER.
Intended questions for voice access, using information your municipality provides and maintains.
EXPLORE AN EVERYDAY QUESTION
Planned capabilities.The intended answer would use your collection zone, the village’s official set-out rules, and any published holiday changes.
Question examples only. No live schedules are connected in this preview. If the village has not provided current information, the experience should say so and direct residents to the village.
THAT’S WHAT THE CONVENIENCE IS FOR.
A useful answer while making breakfast, gathering the recycling, or planning the weekend.
Another place for routine questions to find an answer. More room for the conversations that need a person.
YOUR TOWN. YOUR SAY.
Choose the public information residents can hear. Keep using the calendars and approved sources your team already maintains. Categories would be opt-in, with the option to turn sharing off.
Public information only.
Internal-only items, drafts, private notes, and employee information would stay out of voice answers.
A preview of your town’s controls. Try the switches; nothing is connected or saved.
Demo: 2 categories selected. Internal-only items remain excluded.
A FEW THINGS TO KNOW
Alexa and Siri access are planned features. Android access is coming soon. This page is a design preview; no skill or shortcut can be installed here yet.
No separate Municiply app is planned for these Alexa and Siri experiences. Alexa would use an Echo or the Alexa mobile app on a supported phone. Siri would use a ready-made shortcut added to Apple Shortcuts on iPhone.
Your village would share its skill or shortcut link. Residents would enable the Alexa skill through Amazon, or add the Siri shortcut to Apple Shortcuts. Any required village and collection-zone setup would follow. All names and setup screens shown here are illustrative.
Residents would confirm their collection zone when required. Answers must use that zone’s official collection schedule and the municipality’s published holiday changes and set-out rules. A general village schedule is not enough when collection varies by neighborhood.
From public information the municipality provides, approves, and maintains, such as collection calendars, event listings, meeting notices, and office hours. Available topics depend on the information each town shares.
The experience should explain that a current answer is unavailable and point residents to the village for confirmation. It should not fill in missing details or invent a schedule.
HomePod would require additional setup and compatibility testing. The proposed iPhone shortcut is not a confirmation of HomePod support.
A future Android experience is being explored. This preview does not include an installation flow or a confirmed launch date.
FOR YOUR TEAM. FOR YOUR NEIGHBORS. FOR YOUR TOWN.
Bring your town’s information a little closer to the people who need it.
