My kids keep telling our Amazon Echo unit to order candy and comic books. I’d like to just disable it, rather than argue with them. It’ll also save me throwing Alexa through the window one afternoon! Is there a way to disable voice shopping?
When I set up my Alexa Echo Dot somehow I forgot to give it a good name. Is there a way to rename an Amazon Echo device after it’s hooked up and part of my Alexa network?
I use the Calendar app on my iPhone to manage my schedule and am wondering if there’s a way that my Alexa devices can access my schedule too?
When I walk in to my house, I want to say “yoohoo, home again” and have my house come to life. Lights, the furnace changes settings, the door locks behind me, etc. How can I set this up with my Amazon Alexa and all my smart home devices?
I’m loving my new Kindle Paperwhite, but every time I go to buy a Kindle book, it shows up on Amazon as “Anna’s 2nd Kindle”. Boring. How can I change it?
I’m afraid I might have broken something with my Amazon Alexa: Instead of answering requests, it now beeps. Which I find confusing! What’s going on and how do I have her talk to me again?
Hi Dave. I got a new Amazon Echo for Christmas and am a bit confused about the iPhone app. Do I need to use it? What are the best settings for a good Echo / Alexa experience?
I’ve been an enthusiastic owner of voice-activated speakers since the very first Amazon Echo came out. They’re great additions to your home or office, except for one problem: They don’t actually sound that great.
