I went through teaching it the up down and stop buttons and it now works equally as well as the remote does which in fairness is a bit patchy itself often only two blinds would move if you pointed it in slightly the wrong directionall in all it was a little offputting to not see my brand in the very short list of known brands and a little confusing that my blinds wouldnt work as blinds but would work as curtains but it still took maybe 20 minutes in total from opening the box to programming timers and automations for the blinds into alexa
