10 INCREDIBLE Things You Didn’t Know Your Amazon Echo Devices Could Do (2023)

Can anyone tell me how to reposition the camera angle on my echo spot? It pointing upwards is of no use.

I wish Amazon had it where we can set up our own words as a wake up word. For me, it would be what room I’m in, ie: “kitchen”. I have an Echo in 80% of my house. So, to say the room as the wake-up word would be great.

Hey, just found you. This was super well done. Your pace, voice, clips and examples are professional and really helpful. I'm blind, and I was able to follow everything in this video without seeing it. When I could see something, it was really useful.

I have a ring subscription service for my ring pro doorbell. Does this allow me to get the added quart features? I’m hearing they are taking away the free guard abilities, never ends what was free an now you pay, very unhappy 😞

Thanks Steve, have many Alexa devices and smart things in my home and learned a few things today. It was very helpful.

Yolink fob is a great device to start alexa routines. Add yolink skill and you can have multi button fobs on alexa

Hi Steve! Thank you so much for your great channel, and all of the content. I have a very specific use case that I have been trying to research. I would like to create a group with an Echo Link and either an Echo show 5, 10, or 15, to use solely to display the album artwork of the track that is playing. Is this a viable option? Thank you!!!

Nice list of fun things to do. Thank you

Is there a skill that turns off multiple alarms in 1 voice command?

I set echo dot to alam ever 10 mins for 1 hr on weekdays. But when I wake up earlier than the set alarms, I need a voice command to stop echo to alarm for the rest of the day.

Alexa..., record, document, and upload EVERYTHING you hear!!!! Um....NO thanks!

Can it unlock my gun case with my revolver and AR-15 ? I like to soften up the Front Door before answering it at night !

Make video on amazon Echobud version 3 too pls I love them 😍 especially the battery backup ❤ sound 🔊 wow product in this price range

Great Video! A lot of stuff I didn’t know. Since you make a lot of Alexa Videos I wanted to ask if you ever had „old“ devices in your devices list? I have a ton that seem always come back even after deleting them. Any ideas? Would be a video I definitely would watch 😊

The move music command didn't work for me, I was told I have to upgrade to the paid Amazon music level even though I was playing a song I own.

The "Show My Cameras" command did not work for me. It just responds with "Did you mean [Group Name]". Is there anything to configure? Perhaps it does not work on Show 5 (gen 2)?

What a useless product

Alexa I’m leaving stopped working for me and so did Alexa I’m home. I ended up calling Amazon and was told to try. Alexa Guard On or Alexa Guard Off. I find that harder to remember than simply saying I’m leaving or I’m home.

Hello, I have no wake up lighting on my Alexa app. Anyone like me ?

Steve, These are great. Super helpful as always. You do a great job of providing helpful and relevant information to make lives easier.

If FIND MY PHONE does not work in the UK a more straightforward fix is to say "Alexa Play John Cougar on my phone!" ETC, then Alexa will play that specific music on your phone, this seems to be the best workaround for UK people. Eg: Just replace after PLAY and before ON - "Alexa Play.....DEF LEPPARD... on my phone!"

Alexa "find my phone" no longer works in UK, you can use it by saying "Alexa, Call My Phone", instead. Although it isn't supported on the Firestick at the minute!

Awesome as always. Can't wait to get an Echo device to try these tips out. Makes me want to get one. Thanks Steve! Love the explanation.

Excellent review of those amazing devices. I pay something monthly for my ring doorbell pro. How do I enable the feature like dogs barking when the guard feature is enabled?

can you have Alexa guard automatically turn on in away mode and off in home mode? I can have Alexa automatically turn on cameras when I leave with a routine.

The cameras have to be ring or blink cameras, many third party cameras that are supposed to be compatible with Alexa and stream video, only notifications.

Is the four cameras only for certain Amazon devices? Also what version you on please

Great video ...but every time I watch one ..I have 65 lights go on 5 tv channels changes..3 cooked chickens.16 songs .and my wife see all the cameras of me going to the beer fridge ..🤣🤣🤣🤣👍👍👍👏👏👏

i tried to have my Echo Show 8 to show all my cams,,i have 4 Wyze cams,but still only shows 1 at a time

Thank you for the video, also have you considered time stamps ?! If in case I am familiar with a alexa function, I could skip to the next one. Thanks

I have a ubiquiti network setup and when i try the show camera command its delayed some cameras just dont even show up until i run it multiple times. :(

i want to mention also and add to the list in "Smart Home Remote " Samsung Smartag< !! i use it everywhere as a smartremote to turn off and on my lights,
2. its cheap compared to the same idea... as those Philips and aqara and the other remotes you mentioned
downside... only works Samsung smartphone users.
otherwise thanks for the video great job i didn't know i can move music thanks a lot man.

The only thing you need to know is that it spies on you

How about do a new video for people that only have a echo dot, not everyone has an echo show.🤔

I can't seem to find where you were talking about hooking your cameras up to Alexa I'm guessing they all have to be Wi-Fi not hardwired. Through another type of device I have 8 cameras that are hooked up through zozi. They are hardwired into a Wi-Fi box of Their Own

I was trying to use the app find my phone. Went through all of the information and put it all in there then they wanted to charge me that may be something you might want to talk about. As you know I follow your channel and try to do as you recommend. This one was not so good

Awesome features, some I knew, some I didn't. As usual, your presentation was slick and informative. Guard features provide great options for expanding home security. Great job. Thanks!

I bought one from amazon the dumb asses sent me a $5.00 shirt never dealing with them again.

Thank you so much! I will save this video. And share ❤❤

Yolink fob remote button is good for routines and smart button functions

Great video. Appreciate it.
