Alexa lives in the microphone icon next to the search bar in the Amazon Shopping app. This icon originally let users voice-search Amazon to find products to buy, but now it will also support voice commands for Alexa. You're not limited to shopping-related questions, either—you can use Alexa in the Shopping app as you would in your home if you have an Alexa-enabled device. Alexa can detail weather information, tell you jokes, track Amazon orders, answer search-related questions, play music from Amazon Music, and even read Kindle books aloud.

Originally posted by Sparko View Postreally? this morning I said, "Alexa, good morning" and she told me that this is the anniversary of the Batman TV show and to ask her for a Batman joke.

"Good Morning. On this day in 1895 the National Trust was founded in order to protect historic places and spaces forever, for everyone".
Maybe because I have the British English? Lemme check.....The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.
