Voice In Canada Flash Briefing #1107
Hey there, Teri here with your flash briefing for Monday, hope you’re doing well.
Today I wanted to tell you about a relatively new feature that has popped up in the Alexa app.
You may be already aware of this because it hasn’t been around for a few weeks now, but this is the light and the dark modes.
So basically, depending on what time of day you log into your Alexa app, you will see that the interface looks either bright with sort of a white background or dark with more of a, well, a black background.
And the idea behind this is that in low light conditions, the dark mode is easier to see, it also improves your device battery life, while the light mode is better for readability.
it’s a great little feature that Amazon has launched and I noticed that a little while back,
So it’s interesting, I mean, it’s great, it’s a great little feature that Amazon has launched and I noticed that a little while back, like I said, and it actually makes it a little bit easier to use the app so win win for everyone.
So if you haven’t logged into your app recently, go ahead, give it a try, see what you think and if you’re like me, you might be pleasantly surprised with what you see.
I also want to give you a quick reminder that today we are meeting on a Clubhouse at 4:30 Pacific for the happy hour voice.
I hope that you will join us there and always remember we the voice.
