You are funny and informative without being annoying. A rare combination of these days. Keep up the good work Mike!

I've got an Alexa echo dot too. It's cool. These are very helpful thank u. 😊

@o.w.sproductions1873 4 года назад

I am sold with the guitar tuner idea! Saves me firing up my pedalboard for minor tweaks.

@fyom 5 лет назад

Echo needs this skill: "Alexa, normalize audio." (maintains consistent volume between songs in a playlist, especially needed for older music) Also, would like to see more flexibility in user-created routines. For example, Saying, "Alexa, let's workout" could set volume to 3, set timer to 30 min and play Trance music. Keep up the good work Mr. Bezos.

@MikeWat 5 лет назад

That would be a super cool feature!

@linkinparkfan4119 5 лет назад

You probably can do exactly this right now. You have to make your own "routines".

@fyom 5 лет назад

@@linkinparkfan4119 Last time I tried to make Alexa routines, found it was limited to some predefined commands. I'll have to try again to see if they have added more capabilities.

@jackies_world 5 лет назад

Have you looked into IFTTT? I'm sure it should be able to do that for you. I used to use it before Alexa updated and had more routine features in the app versus discovering another apps routines.

@yannivu1774 5 лет назад

If you have Spotify there’s a setting to normalize audio

@MikeAnn193 5 лет назад

@CowsRus that's a _huge_ generalization, and in fact I'm reading these comments to see if I'm the only one (I'm American) who found his showy enthusiasm and "humor" annoying. I just wanted information, not a song and dance.

@TB-rx1ue 5 лет назад

Haha when Alexa says good bye I think it’s cold too 😂 I’m like darn, she’s sassssy. Oh mannnn and where I was trying not to buy my second Alexa product. I love Alexa sooo much. Do I need an audible sub to use the reading function? That looks coool

@MikeWat 5 лет назад

Haha I'm glad I'm not the only one who feels that way when she says good bye xD I think you would need an audible sub because it's linked to your amazon / alexa account! You should try it out, you get 3 months & 3 books for free in the trial! :)

You can play Jeopardy, Song Quiz, Escape the room and many other games. You can play IHeart radio, your favorite local radio stations, etc. Amazon Unlimited music also has comedians, recipes, jokes, soundtracks, Disney music, etc.. I love that I can create playlists and have her shuffle my music or tell her what songs I like and she plays similar songs. You can also tell her to play a genre of music.
