Ask for Amazon Alexa App

I was quite unsure as to exactly what my 1st Alexa can do & how I can use it. I love that I can put my own phrases of philosophy in the app. I have to admit not exploring all of it. I’m a bit confused as I’m an Amazon prime member & this hasn’t connected & I have paid £9 odd for something I’m unsure what it is. So have to wait for my son to help me. It’s mostly pictures with Titles e.g. Books or Music. I will suss it in the end. It does pick up my phone when I play You Tube through Alxas speaker. Unable to find how to set time. Setting up is so quick. I followed the stages & as soon as I plugged in Amazon Alexa the blue ring began to go round & it talks to you about what to do. I’m not techno & don’t feel anyone needs to be. Parental controls. All types of subjects. Definitely going to buy a WiFi dimmer bulb. Great to ask Alexa turn on light if hands are full also dim it all with my voice. Have fun for a long time with up to 4 family members.

I love Alexa, my lights in my home are nearly all of them,with the exception of the bathroom and kitchen one lday I will cost it out. I enjoy asking alexa to switch on /dim/brightens up my day.tho ask a Friend to try it out to.(female ) Regards r Murphy.Mrr

Downloaded on my UK registered and based iPhone X Max and duly bought the ads removal. The app reads out the English commands with a...German pronounciation (eg. “vat iz this” and “number funf”) which of course the English-speaking Alexa doesn’t understand. Wrote to Support and they admitted there was nothing they could do. The conclusion: deleted the app and warn potential English speaking buyers not to touch it lest they go through the same stressful situation. Hence the single star of the review. PS. Didn’t even bother to claim a refund of the £0.99 the ads removal cost

The voices need working on for here in the Uk they are too fast and not clear they sound muffled and sound too metallic and you can understand most of them

The sheer level of bad spelling makes it hard to read. Layout looks like it’s designed for a five year old.

I live in Spain I talk to Alexa in English but app speaks in German

Could be a good app but I’m tired of the ads despite having paid to get rid of them. Have reinstalled to no avail.

Only problem is it comes on on it’s own sometimes and when you are home alone it can scare you !!!!

If you link ad pop ups every time you open a skill set, this is the app for you, especially if you like seeing Trading212 being advertised. I like the skills, but the constant ads kill it.

Stay clear of this rubbish app! Creator obviously tries to get as much advert money as possible which ruins any possible use this app has! Yes adverts in a free app are necessary to gain revenue, but this is just taking the piss. 😡
