Voice In Canada Flash Briefing #1446

Hello. Happy Thursday. Teri here. Today I want to give you a little tip about using your Echo Show devices.

Particularly if you don’t have your phone handy, and you want to dive into some of the settings of your Echo devices.

Here’s what you can do with the Echo Show. You can simply scroll down from the top. So you swipe down, I should say.

I’m looking at an Echo Show 5 in front of me, for example, and I’m looking at 11 different functions or buttons that you can select.

Those include your home button to home, settings, Do Not Disturb, alarms, brightness, notifications, communicate, music, smart home, video, and routines.

You simply swipe down and then you can dive into each one of those

Functions/Buttons to Select in your Echo Device Settings

Those are all things that you can access directly on the screen of the Echo Show device.

And again, you simply swipe down and then you can dive into each one of those, and you’ll see that there are different options based on what category of functions you have selected.

So, there you go. Another way to dive into your Echo device functions and set up your device just the way you want directly from a screen.

Hope that’s helpful to you. And as always, I’ll be back again tomorrow. Chat then
