When an app is too hard, Alexa will order your lawn service

Using Alexa, you can now order a mowing service from the app-based service Plowz & Mowz. (Dreamstime)

You can now mow your lawn without lifting a finger – or shaming your spouse or child. (At least, you can in the US.)

Plowz & Mowz, the app-based service that can send a mowing service to your home with the press of a button on a smartphone, is now synced with Amazon's Alexa voice-activated assistant.
