Voice In Canada Flash Briefing #1415
Hey there. Teri here. Hope you’re doing well. Happy Tuesday.
Today, I want to tell you a little bit more about a new feature that has launched relatively recently here in Canada.
And that is, Amazon Kids on Alexa. This actually started rolling out on December 9th.
But if you’re not familiar with this, this basically is a feature that used to only be available on the Fire tablet and Fire TV devices.
But now, Kids on Alexa allows parents to create a personalized experience for their kids. So what does that mean?
It means that you get to choose what content the kids can have access to.
So, for example, you can allow the kids to listen to approved music, call and message approved contacts, use dropping and announcements on household devices, and get kid friendly answers to questions and jokes, and that sort of thing.

The way this works is it’s all based on personalized voice profiles.
So Alexa gets to understand and learn what the children sound like, so that when the child is asking the question, it knows to be using the kids features and the kids restrictions if you have set it up in that way.
So, there you go. If you’ve got some kids, then make sure you set up some profiles for them.
And then you can customize your settings to how you see fit. Alright? So it’s called, “Amazon Kids on Alexa”, and I hope you find that useful.
Alright? I’ll be back again tomorrow with some other news for you. Talk then
