Introducing Alexa Hands-Free
Last year Amazon brought Alexa, the brain behind Amazon Echo, to
Fire tablets making it even easier for you to enjoy endless
entertainment by simply pressing a button and asking. Now, with the
new Fire HD 10, Alexa is available hands-free—when connected to
Wi-Fi, simply say the wake word “Alexa” and ask Alexa to control
video playback (play, pause, rewind, and fast forward), launch an
app, play your favorite song, or read an audiobook aloud. You can
also ask Alexa to answer questions, read the news, get traffic and
weather reports, set alarms and timers, and more—Alexa provides
voice responses paired with visual cards on your Fire tablet’s
display, and can even respond when your tablet screen is on
standby. Alexa offers access to over 15,000 skills so you can
stream music from Pandora, check your flight status with Expedia,
or order a pizza from Domino’s.
You can also use Alexa hands-free on the new Fire HD 10 to
control a range of smart home devices from SmartThings, Insteon,
ecobee, Wink, and more. Dim the lights or adjust the thermostat
using just your voice. Also, for the first time on a Fire tablet,
you can ask Alexa to show you what’s on your smart home security
camera with compatible devices from Nest, Ring, and Arlo—new
feature coming soon. Because Alexa is cloud-based, it’s always
getting smarter; meaning even more Alexa capabilities for Fire
tablets will be available in the future.
Alexa hands-free will be available on the all-new Fire HD 10 via
a free, over-the-air software update. The update will begin rolling
out to customers starting October 11.
