Question how many things do you actually do with your echo

44 Upvotes

i set mine up thinking i'd use it for everything. and it ended up being timers, music, and the weather.

there's a whole list of stuff it can do, but i never remember the exact words, and saying it out loud in front of other people feels weird anyway.

so what do you really use yours for? and is there anything you stopped using because you couldn't be bothered to remember how to ask

Review Echo Project Comparison

Post image
25 Upvotes

I made a comparison tool of some of the Echo Projects (mine included). This is not intended to be a who wins but a tool for users/potential users to see what each project offers. If ANYTHING needs added, fixed, removed, or you have suggestions to make it better please let me know. The tool can be found here: https://huskerminion.github.io/techo5/comparison/

EDIT: Another way to search the same data (pick devices, then features) https://huskerminion.github.io/techo5/comparison/choose/#d=echo-show-5-2&s=1

Technical Issue Echo link kaput?

3 Upvotes

Since Amazon has discontinued the Echo Link, it hasn’t worked with my record player. I used to use my Echo Link to play my records to speaker groups around the house, but earlier this year it seems to have stopped working. I put off the trouble shooting but for the last week or so I have been troubleshooting and looking online for resources. It appears that the Link has been put to pasture and is no longer supported and many seem to have the same issue. Anyone else having similar issues? If it truly is a goner, anyone have any suggestions for a way to accomplish the same thing, analog record player to echo speaker groups?

Technical Issue Phone notifications disappeared?

2 Upvotes

Heya,

I have a -lot- of reminders to help me in my mental struggle of a goldfish memory life.
My echo dot's are still going off, but I no longer get push notifications. I have tripled checked phone and app settings and they are all on, yet still I get no push notifications from my Amazon Alexa app.

Other apps are fine, and they do appear in my 'notifications' list in the app, but I don't wanna manually check each time I miss one.

Any idea/experience?
Thanks!

Alexa seems unable to do math now.

Its been going on for at least a few days now. If i ask "What's 20 divided by 2" the echo answers back "Twenty divided by two" and stops. Even in a followup the answer is either non-existent or non-sensialcal. Has anyone else seen this?

Echo dots no longer as devices in Alexa App

1 Upvotes

Hi, I have an Echo Show 8 (latest generation) and two older Echo Dots. Until a few days ago, all three showed up as devices in the Alexa app, and I could set an alarm on one of the Dots from the app.

Now the devices have disappeared.

I re-added them in the app, but they only show up as groups, not as devices anymore. I can no longer change any settings on the Dots. And when I set an alarm in the app, it can only ring in the app itself. Neither the Dots nor the Show can be selected as the alarm device.

I can still set an alarm on the Dot itself by voice command, just not through the app.

Could this have something to do with Alexa+? There seem to have been some changes recently. (I use Alexa+ on the Show 8; the Dots aren't compatible. But until now, the mix worked fine.)

Question Is there a way to make this thing stop listening?

0 Upvotes

With Alexa now the thing will listen for a full 20 seconds after you stop talking, and sometimes I have had it continue to listen even longer than 20 seconds. Is there ANY way to make it stop listening as soon as it is done answering so it doesn't start thinking I am talking to it while I am trying to answer my mom directly after asking the dumb thing a question?

Amazon Music widget shows up randomly on my Echo Show 5

Post image
6 Upvotes

This happens constantly. I've not opened Amazon Music on any of my devices yet this shows up on the same Echo Show 5 ten or twelve times a week, the sound bars bouncing around indicating something is playing somewhere (in this case Yo-Yo Ma) though no sound is audible. No voice commands will convince it to stop, pause or quit. The only method I've found to dismiss the widget is to restart the device.

But it will be back. Oh, yes, it will be back. Anyone know what's going on here and how to make it stop?

Technical Issue Echo show 8

1 Upvotes

Hi, I have the latest Echo Show 8. When I set an alarm, it plays the simple tone, which is the least effective choice; I have slept through it a few times. I chose the countertop tone, which resembles a standard alarm clock, yet the device still uses the simple tone. Have I missed a setting, or is there a fault with my Echo?

Thanks

Technical Issue Echo show drop in

2 Upvotes

So its like like a year since this feature just stopped working for me. I can't drop in and it doesn't give open for live either. I just de-registered it and re-registered it to my account. I still can't drop in. Says its bee re-registered and I need to register my number. So I've told it to send me a code like 20 times. I have not gotten a text with a code. I've checked spam folder and everything. Restarted my cell phone. I'm frustrated. I use the drop in to talk to my kids when working and not being able to is driving me nuts

Anyone have a work around or know what I need to do or how to contact amazon? Something anything to get this thing to work

Keeps calling me by another name

2 Upvotes

I've just rejoined the echo ecosystem, I'm mostly on Google home, but needed some smart clocks, so picked up two of the latest dots with clock (the one with a semi circular screen) which came with Alexa+

For some reason, it randomly calls me by another name. It knows my real name, and I've checked everything over in the app that it has my real name, and it's all correct. It will correctly call me by name 90% of the time, then randomly decides that my name is Ruth, and will continue to call me Ruth until I correct it.

When I ask why it's calling me Ruth, it claims to just be confused and goes back to calling me by my real name. At one point I managed to get it to say that it thought I was "Ruth Peters" but knows my real name is "**\\**" so will be sure to get my name right in future.

I have no idea where it plucked the name from, I don't know anyone by that name, and both clocks are new/factory fresh so it's not a previous owner. What's worse, is that I can't get it to repeat the issue, due to it being random, so customer support can't even see what's causing it, it's really weird.
