Hi Steve I have just found your Alexa videos and I'm blown away. I have gone round changing things you have shown. I'm now searching through your videos for other things to do and I'm very interested in the echo show 15 and what it can do. I'm also saving your videos.👍

My favorite part of this is that the man actually took into account people's alexa devices and lowered his volume on speaking them so he doesn't activate them.
Omg thank you…. I put a dot in my mom’s assisted living apartment. It has helped me communicate with her as she can not remember how to use a phone. Now I see I can really expand on what I’m doing with this. Happy New Year!
I think the Alexa 10 would be really good for you and your mom! It has a big screen that actually moves to the person and follows them (uses electric motor), you can also move it where you want to see via app. So basically you can check on her to make sure she is OK and then can video call if you wanted as well. I very highly doubt she would care about the speakers- but you would (I'm sure) like the speaker quality for listening to music. You can also play movies etc. Via apps like Netflix/RUclips for your mom from your alexa app (she wouldn't have to touch or do anything with it besides watch). When I read your comment I started to get teary-eyed-I assume she has dementia... such a hard thing to deal with and I'm sorry to hear that. I dread the day my parents get that age. Sending love and positivity your way!! 🙏 ☮❤

It's a shame so many of these features are not available to me here in Canada. I bought into this ecosystem specifically for the security cam live view and Alexa Guard. They don't work.
I have an Echo 10, I think I plugged it in but the screen only displays echo. No response. What do I do to boot it up. I only have the plug attached. On the back are two ports for lock and network. Do I need another cord. I am at a loss
My favorite and the one I’ll be checking into is the ability to turn lights on and off when you enter or leave a room, I had no idea this was available.
Thank you for making this! I admit I was feeling confident I was at least aware of all feature if not actually using them. But I never heard of talk speed change, that’s going to be great for me, I feel like I get impatient when Echo talks for mor than 5 seconds. Going to start with level 2 speed increase.
Hiya, hope you can answer this, I have 3 Alexa’s my wife has 2. We will put the echo studio in the living room and I want us both to be able to play our OWN playlists on that device. Lots of info on the web that hasn’t yet worked. My understanding is that I have 2 accounts linked (hers and mine) but this doesn’t work …as after I have added her account onto mine when I ask my echo to “switch accounts” it tells me that there isn’t another ! Is this the correct way to do this ? Remembering that my wife will of course sign out of my account on her phone as she will want to be in her account for her own echo’s. Many thanks.
Hey Steve, How far from my router (in feet) does the sidewalk feature extend? I live a fairly rural area, extremely long driveway, nearest neighbor's house is about 680 feet away. Do I have to worry about my network being shared?
Is there any way for family members (i.e teenage) to use the Alexa app with their own Amazon account to manage the alarms on their Echo? .. but their echo can still participate in the house?
Hi Steve. I have just discovered your channel and so far I am finding it interesting. However in this video you suggested using it as an aid to help maybe and elderly parent and get them help if it seems that they have fallen. How do I set this up please?
I didn’t like hunches at first but now that the system knows my routine, they work well. Nice if I fall asleep w/ lights on and having Echo turn them off.
Hmmm...you just gave me a troubleshooting idea. Miss Alexa has been kind of confused for awhile now. The most disturbing thing are the lights flashing off and on at the same time every night. I forgot that Guard will do that. It is shut off when I get home - you know if it isn't. There are no routines or IFTTT set up. Something has probably gone haywire. My basement is super creepy at night (100+ year old house) and with the flashing lights, it's like an amusement park haunted house. All the Dots are getting a factory reset tonight. Hopefully that fixes it. If not, time to call support. Thanks. You actually helped me figure it out.
I followed your instructions to setup the view camera option however I received this error when trying to view my echo show: Live view isn't available now. Please try again later. Is it possiblely a geo restriction or is the service just down?
Hm. I have an Echo SHow 5, and have enabled the camera on the Echo Show as instructed, however in my app, for the Echo Show I only have Volume, Drop in and Off...There is no Camera option.
Hi, Steve thanks for your video very informative. I wanted too ask do you have a video on how to remove older Alexa devices and add new ones, I am having trouble doing that for some reason.
Is there a way to set a reminder to go off at the top of each hour during the day without having to set individual timers for each hour? I just had surgery and need to move each hour.
Thanks for the great video. Can you help please. My device has stopped offering me stories. When I say"Alexa, tell me a story" it used to say "I can tell you a strory or you can hear a free short story from Audible. You can say your story or Audible story". It doesn't say that anymore and just goes into Audible. Seemingly I've said Audible story 3 times in a row! Can you tell me the command to get the choice back please. Thank you.
I am new to the Alexa/Echo. I am older than the average user. I want to delete the Reuters News that scrolls across my screen first thing in the morning. I do NOT like this and have tried to find a way to delete this feature. Please tell me how to get rid of this depressing beginning to my day. Thank You !
The Echo Show 5 is worthless as a security cam, as it's design causes the camera to point upward too much, making only the ceiling and upper portion of close-by doorways visible.
There are adjustable stands available. Check on eBay and Amazon. Just thought I'd let you know, it may help resolve the issue, and definitely cheaper than another camera.
I’ve had a Dot for the last three months and I’m considering switching it off. Perfectly useless for the the things that really matter in life. Couldn’t care less for 99% of the ‘services’ it offers. You need it to be able to call an ambulance if you fall. You need it to connect to a mobile or landline if you have an emergency of some kind and can’t reach a phone.
It is handy having it connected to a phone... I can phone using mine without having my phone nearby. If I fell in the bathroom, I just would say "Computer, call Ambulance'... (depends what you have listed it under) Why can't you connect it to your phone?
hi both my friend and my mom have an echo, if my friend is home and i drop in on him its fine but if he is at my moms and i drop in his device it goes through to my moms echo instead, i assume this is because he has his phone with him and its dropping in on the nearest registered alexa to him, can i prevent the rediect or is it normal
Good video. Thank you for muting the word Alexa. That is smart. Other videos had my Alexa saying things related to the video in a very annoying way. Brilliant.
Feature #1 Correction: You actually CAN save the video from your Echo live view camera...........Both IOS and Android phones allow you to RECORD your screen. example IOS, from top right corner swipe towards bottom left corner.....(1 time setup, must have screen recording selected, just goto: settings -> control center -> select screen recording).
Great question. It looks like you can track other packages from certain companies that have an Alexa skill. For example, use the UPS skill to track their packages.
I had to change the wake up…we have three devices and they kept hearing us from other rooms. Does anyone know how to make the Echo sleep at night? The light bothers me.
what really annoys me is whenever you wake an echo show device (or spot) there is no way to turn the display back off without having another non screen echo unit nearby so now if for example i've lit up my show 5 next to my pc and ask it to show the kitchen camera (which is directed to just show the lights in case someone forgot to turn them off) occasionally it just hears "kitchen" and wakes up the show 8 to show its camera feed, then of course when i cancel that it leaves the show 8 display on (using more power) so i have to drop in on the echo dot in the same room just to issue the command "echo, display off", pity it doesn't have the option to auto turn off the display when the unit is idle. i wont even comment on our transsexual alexa units (in the uk), we have no male wake word to go with the male voice so it's like talking to that "lia" (the trans swimmer).
Any tips for setting up voice profiles for two people with similar voices? Our Alexa cannot distinguish between my husband’s and my voice. We never know who actually put something on the shopping list, for example.
nice video and well done...BUT don't find any of the features useful for me. Just would be nice to figure out how to play the same friggin music on more than on device...
I have two Alexa's one of which answers questions etc. normally but when giving a reminder talks very quietly. the other is OK anyone know why it is quiet (reminders only)
I have a question that no amount of googling has answered. Every morning at 410 am, my Echo Dot beeps - and a white ring is displayed for a few seconds. What is causing this?
Hi Steve first time watching your videos, I'm blown away, I have gone round changing my devices you made it so clear and easy. I'm now searching the rest of your videos for mores thing to do plus I'm saving them.👍
I'd set up that nothing gets recorded and saved. I clicked to see and everything was being recorded and saved, and it still showed save nothing. The not intended recordings are interesting I wish it told me what it recorded and saved. The together thing seems great for when my Dad gets older or like when he broke 5 ribs and his clavicle biking. I could have dropped in or at least known he was ok. He sucks at remembering his phone so I wouldn't know if he was alright until I got home to him after work. So that would be cool to use down the road.
Hi Steve, absolutely love your videos, clear and concise, just what we need! about the the fwatures you've mentioned, sadly the one that interested me the most (Alexa guard) is NOT available here in the UK!! Keep up the great work and look forward to the next one.
Please do an update on this video with Echo Show 8 (2nd Gen, 2021 release). And please do it with out using a smartphone. P.S. this video was very helpful.
I feel at times not enough people are spying on me,is there any way i can expand ny list of unknown agancies that want to look into every aspect of my life?,my phone was a bit hit and miss as i could go for a shower and leave it outside,or when i like to wander the streets naked at 3am,is alexa waterproof and can i tape it to my leg?i feel someone,somewhere could be missing out on an important part of my day,and can i get it to work in tandem with other spyware like dot?
The whole concept of 'smart assistance' being in the hands of enormous companies is terrifying. Perhaps these gizmos are for very lonely people who have zero self respect.
Alexa is good for blind people. You can register with the RNIB talking books service and get free books over Alexa (but must have wifi, of course). All controlled by voice commands. Also Radio stations.
This is only for those low-power, low-bandwdth devices like the Tile tags you put on things you dont want to lose. If someone steals your bike, for example, the tag will communicate with Alexa devices that have this feature enabled and send you a notice that your bike was within wifi range of this Alexa device at a specific time. That takes very little bandwidth and is only used in the rare event such a tag was within range. Your neighbors aren't "using your bandwidth".

@@davidlimb7581 That's great to hear David. I'm happy you like them! :)
Do you have a video on how to set up parental controls. I just bought one for my very young grandkids who live far away to call me.

Yep. Although, I actually hit the mute microphone button on my echo before I start any Alexa related video anyway.
I agree! When I talk about my Alexa to my son, I set up my different name to call her. Just so he knows I'm talking about Alexa without waking her up.
Omg thank you…. I put a dot in my mom’s assisted living apartment. It has helped me communicate with her as she can not remember how to use a phone. Now I see I can really expand on what I’m doing with this. Happy New Year!

Sending love and positivity your way!! 🙏 ☮❤
That how you know this dude knows what he’s doing. Actually lowered the volume when he says Alexa. Nice touch.
The most handy thing I've discovered with Alexa is that I can say "Alexa, shut up" instead of "Alexa, stop". It's much more satisfying.

Useful, except those options that are STILL not available in the UK. Why does it take so very long for other countries to get the same services.
I have Guard Plus. How do you get the siren to go off? Also, is there a way to turn up the barking dogs? Thanks

Have a good echo dot 2 gen and a eco dot 3 gen that I no longer use. Any ideas on what to do with them? Trade in ? Thanks!
Hi Stev how do i connect the ring to my smart tv, it work once on its own and the it stop
Hey Steve, How far from my router (in feet) does the sidewalk feature extend? I live a fairly rural area, extremely long driveway, nearest neighbor's house is about 680 feet away. Do I have to worry about my network being shared?
Great video. I love that I could use the echo 5 as a basic security camera. Great for monitoring my dog when I have to leave him home alone.
I don't think the whisper function is creepy. It's actually very useful at night but I understand how it may seem creepy. :)
I get my echo dot 5gen tomorrow. Amazon lowered the price and then sold out. Been watching your videos in anticipation. Thanks for your help.
Just got my Echo 4, the set up app on my app talks to me but the Echo 4 device is not responding yet, frustrating!! Any ideas welcome, thanks.
Is there any way for family members (i.e teenage) to use the Alexa app with their own Amazon account to manage the alarms on their Echo? .. but their echo can still participate in the house?
Hi Steve. I have just discovered your channel and so far I am finding it interesting. However in this video you suggested using it as an aid to help maybe and elderly parent and get them help if it seems that they have fallen.
How do I set this up please?
I didn’t like hunches at first but now that the system knows my routine, they work well. Nice if I fall asleep w/ lights on and having Echo turn them off.
Would be great if it knew that I'd fallen asleep with my phone in my hand and made a purchase by accident 🤣🤣🤣
I dont see the camera button, Im in Europe does this make a difference to your iphone App
What's the advantage or disadvantage of keeping your voice recordings?
Can I use the Echo Dot while I'm on vacation connecting thru my Iphone Personal Hotspot?
Absolutely brilliant all of it I've just logged into your channel. That's very interesting about the privacy

Excellent video, delivered at the right pace and easy to understand. Thank you UK
My Dot starts playing a podcast every day at the same time and I did not ask it to play it ever So how do I get it to stop playing it?
Thanks Steve for a great video, some I knew but as always I learned something new also.
In my Alexa App, I do not see an option to enable "drop in" on my Ecobee. Can I not drop in on my Ecobee speaker to use as an intercom?
I followed your instructions to setup the view camera option however I received this error when trying to view my echo show: Live view isn't available now. Please try again later. Is it possiblely a geo restriction or is the service just down?
Mine is saying the same thing. So I suppose it doesn't work on all the echo shows!
Hm. I have an Echo SHow 5, and have enabled the camera on the Echo Show as instructed, however in my app, for the Echo Show I only have Volume, Drop in and Off...There is no Camera option.
Can I route the sound from Alexa through my home theatre speakers? If so, what connection devices do I need . . . other directions?
Hi, Steve thanks for your video very informative. I wanted too ask do you have a video on how to remove older Alexa devices and add new ones, I am having trouble doing that for some reason.

Okay ultrasound I didn't know.. does the camera work for show 5 and 8
Great video, can you do a video on the Alexa 2 nd Gen, and what I can do with its aux out
I’ve had a Dot for the last three months and I’m considering switching it off.
Perfectly useless for the the things that really matter in life.
Couldn’t care less for 99% of the ‘services’ it offers.

If you have Guard Plus you can say Alexa call for help and police will come to your house.
Thank you, great video! subscribed!
wow didnt know echo could be use like a alarm system ..new sub
Great video! 😀
How do you do the custom profile? There’s only me using it - I live on my own!
The 4th gen Echo also has motion detection, it’s not just the smaller Echo Dot.
Thank you😇
hi both my friend and my mom have an echo, if my friend is home and i drop in on him its fine but if he is at my moms and i drop in his device it goes through to my moms echo instead, i assume this is because he has his phone with him and its dropping in on the nearest registered alexa to him, can i prevent the rediect or is it normal

@Steve Does - can alexa track delivery that are not amazon orders
Great question. It looks like you can track other packages from certain companies that have an Alexa skill. For example, use the UPS skill to track their packages.
The Alexa app has a feature called Drop In, which is kind of like the Home Monitoring feature you were talking about.
How can I connect Alexa to Blink video doorbell sync?
Yes so use full................thank you
Very informative, THanks
I had to change the wake up…we have three devices and they kept hearing us from other rooms.
Does anyone know how to make the Echo sleep at night? The light bothers me.
This is crazy!
I think you meant to say "ABODE" not "Adobe", easy to confuse. Great Tips and Tricks. You're always thinking ahead! GREAT JOB Steve. -Todd
what really annoys me is whenever you wake an echo show device (or spot) there is no way to turn the display back off without having another non screen echo unit nearby so now if for example i've lit up my show 5 next to my pc and ask it to show the kitchen camera (which is directed to just show the lights in case someone forgot to turn them off) occasionally it just hears "kitchen" and wakes up the show 8 to show its camera feed, then of course when i cancel that it leaves the show 8 display on (using more power) so i have to drop in on the echo dot in the same room just to issue the command "echo, display off", pity it doesn't have the option to auto turn off the display when the unit is idle.
i wont even comment on our transsexual alexa units (in the uk), we have no male wake word to go with the male voice so it's like talking to that "lia" (the trans swimmer).
I didn’t know about the camera, thanks!. I set it up on my show 5. I did know that I could view my Wyze camera on my show 5.
Any tips for setting up voice profiles for two people with similar voices? Our Alexa cannot distinguish between my husband’s and my voice. We never know who actually put something on the shopping list, for example.
Didn't know about sidewalk and the built-in ultra sonic senor on the dot .
Wow. I learned so much.
THANK YOU!!
nice video and well done...BUT don't find any of the features useful for me. Just would be nice to figure out how to play the same friggin music on more than on device...
Thank you
I have two Alexa's one of which answers questions etc. normally but when giving a reminder talks very quietly. the other is OK anyone know why it is quiet (reminders only)
Hi Steve first visit to your show and I'm blown away I have set all the things you mentioned and now going to look for more through your videos 👍
I have a question that no amount of googling has answered.
Every morning at 410 am, my Echo Dot beeps - and a white ring is displayed for a few seconds.
What is causing this?
Hi Steve first time watching your videos, I'm blown away, I have gone round changing my devices you made it so clear and easy. I'm now searching the rest of your videos for mores thing to do plus I'm saving them.👍
Thank you sooooooo much for turning down the sound on our wake-up words lol.
It’s about to be AMAZING how far I chuck my 4 devices into the landfill if they don’t stop recommending random features after I ask them anything.
I'd set up that nothing gets recorded and saved. I clicked to see and everything was being recorded and saved, and it still showed save nothing. The not intended recordings are interesting I wish it told me what it recorded and saved. The together thing seems great for when my Dad gets older or like when he broke 5 ribs and his clavicle biking. I could have dropped in or at least known he was ok. He sucks at remembering his phone so I wouldn't know if he was alright until I got home to him after work. So that would be cool to use down the road.
Hi Steve, absolutely love your videos, clear and concise, just what we need! about the the fwatures you've mentioned, sadly the one that interested me the most (Alexa guard) is NOT available here in the UK!!
Keep up the great work and look forward to the next one.
Adding info that the ultra sonic sensor is very sensitive for pets!! It's an irritant for them.
Whisper mode is great for if you are in a home invasion situation.
Eek! I hope that didn't happen to you
You can ask to change the wake word and voice . No need to go to the settings.
Please do an update on this video with Echo Show 8 (2nd Gen, 2021 release). And please do it with out using a smartphone. P.S. this video was very helpful.

despite being connected to my home network,
"sorry something went wrong" is the only thing mine says or does
there is no camera option to pick on the top of Alexa. I select the device and have already set up the camera
Thanks
What about saying Axela instead of Alexa. Muting sounds a little weird.

I would love to set up an Echo for my dad. He is blind and struggles with using Siri on his iPhone. The only problem is that he does not have wifi.
Alexa is good for blind people. You can register with the RNIB talking books service and get free books over Alexa (but must have wifi, of course). All controlled by voice commands. Also Radio stations.
Appreciate the quiet "alexa"s, I'm right next to my device whilst watching this 😂 and it didn't activate
Sadly most of that only works in the USA it wont work on a UK Alexa!
Regarding Amazon Sidewalk, if I disable Community Finding does that stop neighbor's from using my bandwidth?
This is only for those low-power, low-bandwdth devices like the Tile tags you put on things you dont want to lose. If someone steals your bike, for example, the tag will communicate with Alexa devices that have this feature enabled and send you a notice that your bike was within wifi range of this Alexa device at a specific time. That takes very little bandwidth and is only used in the rare event such a tag was within range. Your neighbors aren't "using your bandwidth".
Is it possible to turn OFF the light ring on the Echo plse.
