    Another hidden feature I've found is the screensaver skill. It's videos of ocean waves,aquariums, fireplaces,koy fish and so much more.

    i dig your speaking cadence and approach to this tutorial (the first i've see of yours online). thanks for information (very useful for me and my new echo) and how you communicate it. take care.

    Don’t forget about the bestest most hiddenest featury feature of them all. If you look really hard, you’ll notice an AC Electric cord which has a power supply that converts the the power from your wall to DC power that peers the unit. This and other amazing hidden features are also found a special thing call “the manual”. Make sure to
    Like this comment if you think it’s “special”.

    I Love the intercom feature! This will be great you set up for my brothers room. He's handicap so if I need to go downstairs for a few minutes I can use my fit down there to check on him. Thank you for sharing.

  • @davejansen8969
    @davejansen8969 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Here is a tip, whisper to Alexa and she will whisper back. - Whisper Mode can also be enabled by voice, simply by saying “Alexa, turn on whisper mode.” or just whisper to it and it will enable it.

  • @jeanroberts6122

    Thx so much for this video. I didn't even know this device existed! Now I've got one on the way. Great info! :)

  • @grahamrich11
    @grahamrich11 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Hi Gary, I'm interested to understand how you managed to do this. I was hoping that I would be able to use some of the BBC Player apps on the Amazon TV to make this work but they dont seem to work on the Spot or the Show.
    Did you create the skill yourself or modify someone elses. Fancy making a video to show us what you did?

  • @bertrammoshier8770
    @bertrammoshier8770 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Hello, You can also access the background settings using the Show, itself. :) It offers more options than you showed us.

  • @KelvinSaggers
    @KelvinSaggers 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    if you want you can do everything you showed via background via the echo via touch screen swipe down screen and use settings etc on the device itself

  • @Chadisms
    @Chadisms 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I really just want to know what Show can do differently then the other Alexa products. What are the cool things you can do on the screen that echo dot can’t do. Is watching movies it? I don’t need to know about a screensaver if I’m not using screen. Make sense? Thanks for video.

    • @mmitchellhouston
      @mmitchellhouston 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      The movie feature is pretty damn cool, IMHO. Also, it can show a 7-day forecast for the weather. And, if you ask to see a picture of something (say a pyramid or the Taj Mahal or a platypus) it will pop up on the screen for you. ALSO: If you have a smart camera, you can view it on the Show.

    Can you tell me how I can play the music on my show in the kitchen to my other echo device in the den at the same time. I have tried everything and can't figure it out.
    Thank you.

    • @edwinragland5848
      @edwinragland5848 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      In the phone app. Set up everywhere (all the devices you want grouped with everywhere) ...after you set up the app...say Alexa:play everywhere (the name of the group) hope that helped.

    • @mmitchellhouston
      @mmitchellhouston 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      See my note above. It's called multiroom music.

  • @eyeonart6865
    @eyeonart6865 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Next month when they ship echo show 2 they will have a software update of a browser that you can have youtube again on echo show first generation.

      Do a search on how to create a group for multiroom music.

  • @OrangeScuba
    @OrangeScuba 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Another cool feature you can do is watch Fox News Live on the Amazon Show. Just say "Alexa play Fox News Streaming on TH-cam." and in about 3 seconds its playing. Try it out.

    • @vacationboyvideos
      @vacationboyvideos 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      OrangeScuba currently Google is not supported on Echo Show.... That is what I get back

    • @OrangeScuba
      @OrangeScuba 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yep.. Google decided to Be Evil and revoke it from The Amazon Show. Reason being is that the Amazon Alexa dominates over the crappy Google Home. So this is there only way to get an edge. Google is stupid for doing this because it draws more attention on the fact that they have become a Monopoly and will have to be broken up.

    Seriously, do you think "search" is a "HIDDEN" feature. LOL As a matter of fact, EVERYTHING you mention is advertised and NOT a HIDDEN feature.

  • @CReview4U

    Of course, now TH-cam is being pulled by Google from Amazon products, so there goes that "cool" feature

    TH-cam is owned by Google right? Expect some occasional changes that cause disruption to all but Goggle Home devices I’d be messy if I worked 4 Google trying to make Google products your choice. I’m all in with Apple right now so I really don’t know until my folks purchase everything but Apple and then tell me to come fix it seems they will eventually have Shows every room they spend an ounce of time in

      Ummmmm. That's an odd comment for someone who is buying a device that is always listening... The device cannot be used to spy on you: the ring changes to a bright color when the intercom mode is on.
