I recently bought 2 of the Echo Dots and already I've found it useful, especially when I'm cooking. Also, I love that it can pick up where I left off on my audiobook. I'm looking forward to you making more of these videos. I've already learned some useful commands from this one.
Thanks so much! Yes, they are very usefuland my only problem with playing audiobooks on it is that I am always moving around since I have a toddler to chase after. But when I can, I love that feature too. Have you tried using it for Kindle books? sometimes Kindle books are cheaper than audio books even though the voice isn't as great.
@@LiveAccessible Right now I have 2 of the Echo Dots paired together (so I get stereo sound when I listen to music on it) on a small table in my kitchen. I have Audible going on them while cooking and the like. I haven't tried using them for just the Kindle voice though. I will have to give that a try with one of the e-books I've already read to see how it sounds.
Hi everyone! Make sure you check out the description forsome text written on the screen. I forgot to mention that in the video. Thanks to all of you for all the support. ❤️👍
Love hearing about how other folks use smart home devices. :) We have three each of the Google Home Minis as well as three Echo Dots active in our home right now, and I use them all every day. The Google Home has much stronger search skills than Alexa does, and also works better with my Spotify subscription, podcasts, and playlists. However, bossing Alexa around at the the things she does well is smoother than with the Google Home.
That's great! There's a lot of things that they can do. And each one has their strengths. Thanks for your comment! Little question, with multiple Alexa's, they kind of know or at least try to answer with the echo that is closest to you. Does the Google home mini do the same? Or do all of them answer at the same time?
Thank you! :) Also, just to let you know, this channel has been discontinued and you can follow my new channel here: youtube.com/@carrieonaccessibility. Best, Carrie.
Being able to call Uber and I also use the Allrecipes skill. But the best part of Alexa is that whatever skill it is or built in command,it's all done verbally and the feedback is audio so pretty much everything is extremely accessible.
Hi! I’m so glad you commented on one of my videos so I was able to find your channel. I subscribed! I look forward to seeing more videos from you. Also, your family is so cute :)
Live Accessible thank you! My husband has made a brief appearance in both of my Disney vlogs, but he’s pretty camera shy. Hopefully I can convince him to do a video with me sometime
I love my Echo. I have to admit though I don't use it for all too much just yet. But I do utilize it. The games are also very fun. I did not know that you were from the Philippines. That's awesome I did not tell you but my son is half Filipino. His mom and I met when she first came to this country when she was 18. We now have a very handsome 14 year old boy. He's a definite Ladies Man. I'm sure your son will be too. Small world. Well I will leave this comment by saying salamat po.
@@LiveAccessible oh my God yes. I absolutely love Filipino food. I love everything pretty much other than when you walk in the house and smell fish being fried. It stinks so bad. LOL My favorite is pain seat. I don't know if speech-to-text spelled it correctly but I think you'll understand what I'm talking about. I also love adobo. I even like the pork fat. I'm Italian so I grew up eating pasta and Greek Foods. So Filipino food was a big change but a good one. I know this isn't Filipino but my son loves and eats egg drop soup all of the time. That and he loves his rice. We used to go to a lot of Filipino fundraisers and I would get so excited because there was so much free food. My all-time favorite thing to eat from the Philippines is banana sauce. I eat it with everything.

This is a great video for people who are totally unfamiliar with everything
Thank you very much! 😀
What are the best skills related to visual impairment for Alexa?
Being able to call Uber and I also use the Allrecipes skill. But the best part of Alexa is that whatever skill it is or built in command,it's all done verbally and the feedback is audio so pretty much everything is extremely accessible.
I bought my first ecco for myself for Christmas. This thing is great.
Yes it is and thise 30 commands isnt even a dtop in the bucket compared to everything it can do!
Thanks for video great work
Thank you very much!
