      I have Freetime Unlimited on an Echo Dot (non kids edition) and am having two problems: 1) I can't get the Audible content to play when I request it from Alexa, and 2) most skills won't work for me (e.g. Alexa, let's play Simon Says). Do you have any videos on either of these issues?

    • @TechWithBrett
      @TechWithBrett  5 лет назад

      I don't have a video but I believe you need to go into the parent dashboard and add that content to each profile. You can add the Audio books and Skills you would like enabled for the accounts.

    Great Video Brett! I know you are a GH fan but it would be nice to see more videos like this. I personally use both. They both have benefits. I have a GH & GH mini as well as original echo, new echo, echo show, dot, spot...and a INSIGNIA speaker with GH built in...lol! design and sound quality GH wins (especially dot compared to GH mini) but my favorite is the echo spot. It would be nice to see your take on them.

      Thanks for the feedback! My main goal is to show off the great features of all products but I am pretty limited with time. Hopefully one day I will be able pump out more videos on more products. I have an Echo but it is still in the box so maybe I should do that next!

    I love the bumper by itself. Ha, would like the blue one. Are these features on regular Alexa too? I only have one right now, but two would be nice to use as an intercom. Google's "Broadcast" feature isn't good for that. I like google better too but find that Alexa turns lights on way faster than google does. I wish Amazon would add "Hey" to the wake word because any of those four words can be randomly talked about and she would turn on when I don't want her to. I often wonder about people with family members named Alex. That must be nuts. When I talk to Chris we say "echo" so as not to wake up Alexa and end up yelling Cancel to her. Or "The Echo". I love the idea of saying "Computer" like it's the Enterprise but then I can't talk about our computers. Same problem.
    Up is my fave Pixar movie of all time.

    If it’s the same as Echo Gen 2, why not buy the ED2 for $25 (as of 12/28/18 on Amazon) and enable kid mode and save the difference in cost? Am I missing something?

    • @TechWithBrett
      @TechWithBrett  5 лет назад

      It comes with a year or subscription to some of Amazon's kid content and services as well as extra device protection. But yes you can just use an Echo Dot 2 and pay for the subscription if you want to use it.

    I am a little confused I have been told that free time can only be used on one device by multiple Amazon reps. I have a kindle fire and an Echo and I am thinking of getting the free time subscription. Since I have one kid I can only use one or the other for free time unless I pay the rate of 6.99 a month so she can listen music on her dot and play games on her fire at the same time under free time. It makes no sense that I would have to unlink my free time from one device to link it to the other device to use it. I should be able to play it on any device.

      Hello I am actually an employee (of commission) at Amazon (package supervisor) . I have an Alexa of my own . Amazon has stated ‘They have made a coding error and have fixed the problem but if you send feedback they may still keep the recording . If you want to learn more about feedback contact Amazon .
