  4. New reports from late 2025 warn about placing Amazon Echo devices near windows. Direct sunlight and heat can damage the device, and loud noises nearby can stop Alexa from hearing you.

  9. And if I unlink the Skill and try to re-link it I get this 🤨

    Suspect there’s some broken identity/auth federation between Amazon and the BBC this morning…

  11. Oh FFS, #BbcSounds on #Alexa this morning won’t let me do any on-demand stuff, like rewinding or playing archive shows, unless I link the app to my BBC account, and they offer to send a link to my Alexa app to tell me what to do.

    Great, except the Alexa skill is already linked to my account, Alexa knows it’s my profile active, and the link never gets sent.

    So now I have a hobbled BBC Sounds on our #amazonEcho devices that was working perfectly yesterday 😫

  13. @web_martin @thimboo @caxo842000 Wie gut/sensibel ist das Mikrofon des Echos bei euch? Ich muss den Echo 8 fast anschreien, damit der HA Voice Assistant sich angesprochen fühlt. Besonders wenn Musik läuft.
    Ist das bei euch ähnlich?

  15. @thimboo @web_martin Ich würde Google Cast auch nur als lokalen Service zum abspielen verwenden. Wenn es was anderes gibt, gern auch das.

    Hat jemand eine Idee, wie man ein Android Tablet als Target in Music Assistant verfügbar macht?

  17. My #AmazonEcho uses a yellow ring notification to try a free #AlexaPlus trial every couple days, even though I say no every time. Decided to try saying yes, and then immediately canceling. Will they get the message that I don’t want it?

  19. My favorite part of this holiday season was listening to my mother in law explain to me that “The lady who does the #Alexa, she must have left or got a different job or something, because they got a new lady doing it now.”

    Context: we don’t use an #AmazonEcho, but my in-laws have one in their home, and I’m guessing the default voice must have been changed.

    Anyway, evidently Alexa’s AI voice must have been changed recently.

  21. Amazon Basics Smart Dimmer Switch and Remote for Music and Routines

    It's good for falling asleep to music as a basic physical remote control for volume, track skipping etc, without having to wake yourself up yelling commands or looking at a bright screen.

    I do wish it came with a dedicated TPU soft case / cover to protect it from falling off the bed onto a hard floor.

    Also when I initially set it up, I could setup *both* long press and single tap for a total of 8 commands.

    It happened to fall on the hard floor so I had to reset it. And now I only get one option for each button. Anyone have ideas how to go about fixing this, thank you.

  27. Ars Technica: People regret buying Amazon smart displays after being bombarded with ads. “…reports on Reddit (examples here, here, and here) and from The Verge’s Jennifer Pattison Tuohy, who owns more than one Echo Show, suggest that Amazon has increased the amount of ads it shows on its smart displays’ home screens. The Echo Show’s apparent increase in ads is pushing people to stop using […]

  29. "Blend into the background," they said.
    Then your Echo Show shoves a drill bit ad in your face. 🙄

    Engadget's Amy Skorheim is so done with Amazon's un-opt-outable ads on her Echo Show, she's giving it away! Is this the blurry line for smart home tech, or just another cash grab?
