[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Never even occurred to me to have one![/quote] Same here. I just don't see the point in our house. [/quote] There's a lot of great uses for it. I love how easy it is to use as an alarm. You can just peak out loud and set the alarm. If you want to change the time you don't have to fiddle with it, you just speak out loud. Great for snooze also. You can just lay in bed and say "Alexa snooze for 5 minutes" without having to lean over while half awake and hit the button. Another thing I really like about it, is how easy it is to add things to your lists. There is an alexa app that you can download on your phone where you can have lists. I keep my grocery list on it. If I am looking in the refrigerator and see that we're out of ketchup, I just say "Alexa, put ketchup on grocery list" I don't have to go to my phone and add it like I did before. That may not sound like much, but it is extremely helpful, before Alexa, I wouldn't automatically add something to my list as soon as I thought of it, and I lot of times I would forget to record it. These are just two examples, but once you really learn what it can do and how to find uses for it that are useful to you, it really is quite helpful. [/quote] Another great use is that you can use it as an intercom for the house. You can even make announcements in the home when you are gone through the app. So I am able to virtually nag my kids from work, while they are getting ready for school. [/quote]
