Voice In Canada Flash Briefing #924
Hey there at Teri Fisher with your flash briefing and as you know, on Sundays, I like to answer a question from the community.
Today’s is from Barry Smith who asked a question in our Facebook group.
If you are not a part of our Facebook, Spacebook, that’s interesting.

Barry’s question is, “I have an Echo Plus first-generation that is spinning a green light. I know this means I’m on a call, which I didn’t make, he says but I cannot find a command to cancel the call or the spinning green light, can you help?”
Unplug your device, wait a few moments, and then plug it back in
Well, the typical commands are, “Alexa, hang up,” “Alexa, stop,” those sorts of things, but if it doesn’t work, then we did have a couple of people in the community chime in with their advice.
And Patrick Doyle said Hard boot, meaning unplug your device, wait a few moments, and then plug it back in and that should basically reset it.
And that’s exactly what I would recommend doing, it sounds like there’s some kind of glitch there, it’s hard to know exactly why the green light is spinning.
I actually have had that issue once or twice in the past and usually, that’s what I do as well as I will unplug the device.
So hopefully that helps you Barry, and thank you very much for your question.
Alright, have a wonderful day, talk to you tomorrow.
