“Tens of millions of customers around the world are already
using Alexa, and today we’re excited to introduce Alexa to our
customers in France,” said Jorrit Van der Meulen, Vice President,
Amazon Devices International. “We’ve built an entirely new
experience from the ground up that honors the French language and
culture, allowing customers to just ask to get music, weather,
news, information, and more—just by asking. And there are already
hundreds of skills for French customers from some of the most
popular brands in France.”
Echo, Echo Dot, and Echo Spot are voice-controlled speakers
designed entirely around your voice—they’re always ready,
hands-free, and fast. Alexa is the brain behind Echo—just ask, and
she’ll answer questions, play music, read the news, set timers and
alarms, check sports scores, control lights around your home, and
much more. With far-field voice control, Echo can do all this from
across the room. Since Alexa runs in the AWS cloud, she is always
getting smarter—plus, it is simple for developers to build Alexa
skills and integrate Alexa into their own products.
Alexa will be available in France starting next week.
