We have long resisted getting an Echo. Never really saw a need. ruclips.net/user/postUgkxhB5YOMNj04GuoAosExygP4cH-dKeb4aB When we recently completed some remodeling in our home, we realized we had failed to add a switch to turn on a certain lamp across the room. We couldn't run new wiring (which would have been expensive if we could), so we got our first Echo which completely solved our problem for about $40 (Echo Dot and smart plug). We just ask Alexa to turn on/off that light. Heartily recommend it to solve this kind of conundrum!
I don’t have an Echo Dot (whatever that is!). I have the Amazon Alexa app on my I-Pad Pro. The problem is that there’s no way I can get Alexa to ‘speak’ to me through the I-Pad Pro. Any idea why not?
Ok, have not watched yet, but have had 2 Amazon speakers, echo dot, I guess, for a while, dreading the thought of setup. Why? Because I have one I bought almost a year ago and still don't really know how to use that frustrating app. So, I just guess at things and kind of stay on anything that is somewhat working. So, I be judging this video hard and HOPING you can really start at a beginners level, which means go SLOW on steps. Please... Btw, the main reason I have 3 echo speakers is for good quality sound/music, loud in all of my 4 tiny rooms. Can you just help me get that right? To play from my TV if I want, or from my phone or tablet? All the same? Is that too much to ask? So far, it has been. 😢
What to do if after saying "Alexa" react only app on my phone but not Echo dot. Same time Echo dot is on. Should I press the button on th device all the time?
Does anyone know how I can get Alexa to stop asking me: "Did I stop the device you were expecting me to ?" every flipping time I stop the radio from playing ?? This gets annoying after awhile and it serves no useful purpose. The sound technology obviously doesn't work and it is stupid anyway. Alexa should simply be advising people: "If you are having conflicts with 2 devices because they are within hearing distance of each other, just change the wake up name for one of them".

I was sold this to extend internet in my town house no idea how that works, all it does is talk foreign languages and the app is baffling. Just wanted a booster router got this complicated piece of crap instead lol!

Yea so I upgraded for the 3 generation she is more faster and sound really good but they is one problem when I ask a question she will give me a random answer to it it may be a software issue but hopefully They fix that
Thank you for the much needed help! HOWEVER, you said "Alexa" way too many times 🤦♂️ My girl kept listening to you, and not me. You caused a great deal of confusion on our first date 😡 Not cool...🤣
@Bill Zardus I'm not sure if you're being sarcastic by saying "genius" but anyhow, I didn't know anything about alexa devices, including that button. I plugged it in and started that video. I'm sure you can imagine my frustration that day, and everyone I tell gets a good laugh.
What I think Amazon Alexa needs is a few people with pitchforks and torches to run 🏃♀️ the old Amazon Alexa programmers 👨💻 out of town and then bring in some new blood 🩸. If their are some vampires 🧛♂️ out there who see the programmers running 🏃♂️ down the streets please eat them, bite them what ever you do best. We will have new programmers 👩💻 before the sun 🌞 goes down.
Amazon echo is so damn hard to use! What I want it plug in the computer, play what is the computer playing, that is, not even any fancy things? For fuck sakes, I try so hard just for the fucking basic function, not even working!!!
you can choose between man and women voice! Also you can choose which english speaking country you want to! I really like it because if you have more as 1 device you can set each differently!
"Alexa" do something that will take me 5 ffing seconds longer to do myself cos I'm so ffing lazy & spellboundingly amazed at modern technology & quite happy to throw away all aspects & fundamentals of humanities values to bump up the profit of big tech. People n this world are getting a ffing robot to shut their curtains for them. While kids starve & people are treated like livestock around the world. All this AI crap is the start of Skynet. How many Sci fi movies you gotta watch to see this shit!
Imagine if a robot could make the exact meal you wanted everyday with all of the highest quality ingredients you prefer to use and does it amazingly well. Life optimization, like being able to sleep in your car on your long commute home from work and millions of other examples, will always be appealing enough to the people to drive demand through the roof for technologic advancement to proliferate. Only way to curb it is not by trying to alter supply or demand of the technology, but using logical, enforceable regulation and preventing corruption between regulators and industry leaders like we constantly see today
Wow. EVERYONE knows that when making a Echo video, you DO NOT say the word Alexa without putting some kind of filter over it. You have to know that people watching this are going to own an Echo, so everytime you say ALEXA during your vudeo, their Echo will activate. Duh You shouldn't be making videos if you can't figure that out, kid.
Step 1: Don't buy an Alexa. Step 2: In the event you ignored Step 1, simply place the unopened package in the trash receptacle, you've wasted your money. Lesson learned.

The echo dot 3rd gen with the mediatek chip is so good. Love using it everyday :)
I don’t have an Echo Dot (whatever that is!). I have the Amazon Alexa app on my I-Pad Pro. The problem is that there’s no way I can get Alexa to ‘speak’ to me through the I-Pad Pro. Any idea why not?
what if I just wanna play from youtube using voice commands can it do that?
I'm glad you had closed captions because I'm deaf but not mute
That’s sad man rly😢

Will it work on cruise ships if you have Wifi? Will it work in Hotels??

Thank you for including the "key moments" in description so if you need to find a certain topic its a bit easier.
The 4th gen dot devices from Amazon and mediatek are so versatile too, fits in any corner of the house
I kid you not sarks, my Alexa said “goodnight sweet cheeks” to me earlier😳 I almost choked on my tea 😤😤😤
Do you have to pay for music subscription ?
Do you have to pay for music channels? Is Wi-Fi needed to us this?
No it uses bezos farts not wifi
for the begginer how do i transfer my music from my phone to the echo dot 13 can you please reply to me and let me know by details step by step
Why am I always getting an error when starting quick thoughts? Is it region-locked?
do you have to have a cell phone to use Alexa?
Make a beginners guide on tesla model 3
Can you set up RUclips Music? Thanks!
unfortunately, we can't :(
One way is to connect Alexa to your phone via bluetooth and play music on your phone (bluetooth speaker)
Me: Alexa, you haven't learnt anything.
Alexa: Hmm, I don't know that one.
How do I delete all locations of my echo dots (4 of them) and start the setup from scratch
Thanks!
Thank you so much😅
Thanks so much great help!
Do this alexa can be used in Greece????
can i use alexa in Portugal?
I can’t wait for Alexa to start selling my information.
If I pair it with my voice can my wife pair it with hers as well so it can recognize both voices?
Does anyone know how I can get Alexa to stop asking me:
"Did I stop the device you were expecting me to ?" every flipping
time I stop the radio from playing ?? This gets annoying after awhile
and it serves no useful purpose. The sound technology
obviously doesn't work and it is stupid anyway.
Alexa should simply be advising people: "If you are having conflicts with
2 devices because they are within hearing distance of each other,
just change the wake up name for one of them".

Thank you👍🏻👏
Its already setup😀😀😀😀😀
You guys are amazing!
Thank you mate
Cool thanks ❤😅
Do I need a phone to use this machine??
Yes
Echo show seems a bit slow to me you seemed to be tapping twice or more for it to respond
Thank u
You didnt explain the speaker setting
I was sold this to extend internet in my town house no idea how that works, all it does is talk foreign languages and the app is baffling. Just wanted a booster router got this complicated piece of crap instead lol!

There is an off button on top of the Alexa device, genius.

tired and tried but my Android doesnt show up
I have just different type of phone i have galaxy so i have the different app
Why does a echo dot do that
Tip: When Alexa is annoying you, just say, "Alexa, shut the fuck up!"
Cool
I need my Alexa to speak English
can you ask it to tell a joke? sometimes im home alone and bored

I need to add my wifes voice to the echo but can't find how.
Lets see how many times you say Alexa. The more the merrier!
8:48 accidentally face reveal
Could you say Alexa a few more times! Not sure my Echo heard you
Mine was going off too
There is an off button on top of the Alexa device, genius.

@@billzardus95 man is responding to someone who he knows has no idea how to use a Alexa BECAUSE THEY ARE WATCHING A ALEXA TUTORIAL
@@ronsmith9408
There are a grand total of 4 buttons on an Alexa device.
How smart do you need to be, to look at them ?
@@ccdogpark probably looked up a tutorial before touching the Alexa to make sure they didn’t mess something up with it
JMFC: WARNING If you have a kindle tablet this is not for you,.
Could you no say alexa so many times....
Great video, useless device

Calm down
I'm 7 minutes in and have learned nothing... 🤦♂️ 👎
I would like the option of having a Man's Voice, not a woman's!
you can choose between man and women voice! Also you can choose which english speaking country you want to! I really like it because if you have more as 1 device you can set each differently!
