It seems to just remember. I said; set a tea timer for 3 minutes. When it was done, it said tea timer is finished or something like that. So, then I said Start the tea timer. It responded with tea timer for three minutes running... No fuss, no muss. I'm glad I am not the only one who didn't realize this. Later,

I only have Amazon devices. I may be the last one to know this, but if I’m not, I thought I would share what I figured out today. When using a device like an Echo or Sonos speaker with the A lady, I would set timers for my coffee and my wife’s tea. I would always just speak the amount of time. I knew you could have multiple timers going at once and it would distinguish between them by the length. I then decided to give them a name. Tea Timer and Coffee Timer. Now, I can just say to it, Start the tea timer. Or start the coffee timer and the length is already set. There you have it.
