Alexa is amazon’s virtual assistant. It mainly competes with
google assistant and Apples Siri. Alexa is available on various devices including smart
phones and smart speakers, and lets you check the weather, play music and control
smart devices in your home with voice commands. Its aim is to help you get stuff done
faster and easier, without the need to push a bunch of buttons or tap on a screen
several times.
The echo constantly listens for a special wake word to know when to start
listening for commands and do your bidding, provided you have not turned off
the devices microphone. The default wake word is Alexa but you can change it to
Amazon or Echo using the app. When the echo’s light ring is blue, it is sending
audio to the cloud and processing your request. Echo will understand a certain set
of pre-programmed commands, and when you speak the wake word before a
command, it does one of the three things: performs the task you requested,
prompts you for more information or tells you it does not understand your
request.
You can also press the action button at the top of your echo or press the talk
button in your Alexa app or remote from other rooms and get echo to respond.
You can turn off the echo microphones with the microphone button at the top of
the device if you want to be sure it is not sending audio. The light ring will glow
red when the microphone is red.
