If you have a lighting group set up say, Alexa set a 30-minute sleep timer with lights. I usually set two alarms a few minutes apart because of the aforementioned snooze-pushing, so I set it to not be too bright (70 percent) for my first one, then full-brightness for the second one so my eyes can adjust better. To get the Sleep Lighting Timer set up say, Alexa, set a 30-minute sleep timer with bedside lamp. So, if I'm waking up at 6:30, I would start scheduling my lights around 6am. I set mine to turn on at the dimmest setting (1 percent), and then from there, I set them to progressively brighten at increasing intervals every 5 minutes for 30 minutes or so until my alarm goes off.
Once you know what time you want to wake up and have set your alarm, you can backtrack with your lighting schedule. Now, for the real magic: My smart bulb has a scheduling option, which means you can set your lights to turn on or any time you want, on whichever days of the week you'd like, and at any brightness you prefer. It's compatible with voice assistants like Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant, but you actually don't even need one to do this- though I will say, asking Alexa to turn off your lights at night instead of getting up to flip the switch will make you feel all-powerful.

Personally, I use the TP-Link Kasa smart bulb, which doesn't require a hub-all you have to do is replace your regular light bulb with it, download the app, and follow the set-up instructions. I do understand how 50 can be confused with 15 - but 15 works, its not a matter of it confusing the echo. Its just strange that 'Go to sleep in () minutes works up to 49. 'set a sleep timer for (time)' is the most reliable for sure. With a bunch of Philips Hue bulbs and strip lights dotted about the home. The only thing you need for this trick to work? The smart bulb of your choice (and potentially a hub for setting it up, if your chosen light bulb requires one), a WiFi connection, and a smart phone. I set mine for anything from 30 minutes to 2 hours every night and never had an issue. Skills added, it was time to weave Alexa’s tendrils into the various devices about my home.
