The app isn’t working for me. It’s the same Alexa app you have but it doesn’t have all the features it’s supposed to have so I can’t connect it to my echo dot. I’ve tried updating the app and refreshed it a thousand times and it still doesn’t work.☹️
Hey Mateo - I've researched why you don't have the same buttons as I do on the app and I can not figure it out either. The only other question I have is what operating system are you using? I'm wondering if that has something to do with it? It not, I would try contacting them by following this link: www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/contact-us/ref=hp_ss_qs_v3_dv_cu_t2&initialIssue=asin-order?ie=UTF8&ref_=hp_ss_qs_v3_dv_forum Maybe they can help you there. Be Blessed, Audrey
Hey Patrice, you should be able to just download the Amazon Alexa app right from your iPad, log in with your username and password and it should work. Let me know if you run into any problems. Be Blessed, Audrey
Unfortunately I'm not sure about that. You may have to contact Amazon to answer that question. Here is a page that you might be able to start at and find your answer: www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html?nodeId=202009680&ref_=hp_G201952240_Alexa-Devices-Help Sorry I couldn't help more than that. Be Blessed, Audrey
Absolutely! Thank you so much for the suggestion. Working on getting a video up about the privacy settings and as soon as that is finished I'll work on this one. ;) Be Blessed, Audrey
My Mom (91) has an Ipad but no cell phone is the Echo Dot still a good choice for her I just want her to have a chance to ask Questions when she is alone (weather, news, time etc) or would Google mini work with her Ipad. ??
Hey Debra, so I did some investigating in order to answer your question. Unfortunately you do need a phone number for the Amazon Echo devices HOWEVER, I was able to use my account and set up the Amazon Echo Dot as if I was giving it to my Dad who lives in Gulfport, MS. I'm not sure where your mom lives in relation to you but if you had the Echo dot sent to you, you could install the app on your phone, using your account but put in her WiFi information (if she has an iPad I'm thinking she must have Wifi because that is needed for these devices to work. After you put in the Wifi information it will ask you the address of this device. Your address probably shows up but you can uncheck that and click on the add address button. Start typing in her address and eventually it will appear in the drop down section. Add that address and now the weather, time and other things around the area will be customized to her location. I also had a dear friend send me this link about setting up the Amazon Echo Show for parents. www.amazon.com/b?ie=UTF8&node=21390531011 Let me know if that all makes sense. I'm thinking of doing a video tutorial walking us kids through the entire process of setting these devices up for our parents and grand parents. My Dad was not too keen on the thought of me being able to just drop in on him so we did not set that up for him. Can't say that I blame him. lol Be Blessed, Audrey
@@Socialmedia4beginners Hi Audrey I am so appreciative of the time you took to answer my question. I will look into all you share with me. Happy THanksgiving from Canada. Deb
I had no idea about the flex until I just researched it after your comment. Amazon is really wanting their speakers everywhere in our homes huh? lol That flex though is super cool and small. I really like the nigh light you can add to it also. How are you liking it? Is this the only one you have or do you have some of the others? Be Blessed, Audrey
Hey here’s the problem I’ve been having: basically whenever I’m trying to log into the app, right after I’m done putting in the code from my phone number, it just gives me a blank screen and then when I restart the app it just brings me to the Home Screen with nothing to Do
Hey Saleh, I really wish I could help but I’ve never experienced anything like that. I think you may have to contact Amazon and see what might be going on with it. Be Blessed, Audrey
Thank you Jack for clearing that up. Funny thing is I asked my 27 year old a daughter what OTP stood for and she said “On the Phone”. lol There is an acronym for everything now a days. Be Blessed, Audrey
Hey there, sorry it was too distracting but when I do these video tutorials it's geared towards the complete newbie, so those that may be much newer to the phone or tablet. Instead of getting lots of questions in the comments, I like to cover everything in the videos. Be Blessed, Audrey

Because I tried installing Alexa on my iPhone but it seems not to be connected because of my present location

Resend OTP - simply means Resend the One Time Password
Thank you Jack for clearing that up. Funny thing is I asked my 27 year old a daughter what OTP stood for and she said “On the Phone”. lol There is an acronym for everything now a days.

@@Socialmedia4beginners oh yeah the app is not available because im in Saudi Arabia so think you!!

OTP = one time password
