Amazon announces the launch of Alexa on the Italian market!
Amazon, after the success achieved in other countries, also launches Alexa and Amazon Echo on the Italian market. The launch took place on October 23 and the devices will be delivered from October 30.
Alexa is Amazon's cloud-based voice service that can interact with you and respond to your voice command, going to perform a variety of on-demand tasks. For example, it can play music, create to-do lists, set timers, stream podcasts, provide weather forecasts, traffic information and other real-time information such as news. It can also control several smart devices using itself as a home automation system for home automation management.
Interaction with Alexa takes place via Amazon Echo and other devices equipped with the Alexa Voice Service. Basically, Alexa can be considered the "brain" behind Amazon Echo and other Alexa-enabled devices, through which the interaction between your voice command and Alexa's intelligent response takes place.
Amazon Echo devices are hands-free devices with built-in speakers, controlled by your voice and equipped with the Alexa Voice Service that allow you to get everything you want with a single action: ask.
Using Alexa is in fact very simple: all you have to do is ask a question and Alexa, through the Amazon Echo device, will respond instantly, thus satisfying your request.
These are some of the questions you can ask: "Alexa, what's the weather?", "Alexa, what's on my calendar today?", "Alexa, what's your favorite book?", "Alexa, add the milk to my shopping list ".
In addition to being very simple, it is also a very practical and comfortable operation, able to facilitate our daily life. With the power of voice control, in fact, it allows us to have our hands free and to do more things at the same time. You can then talk to Alexa in any time and circumstance, even while you're cooking, cleaning the house or getting ready to go out - no need to stop to talk to her. Alexa therefore facilitates your multitasking skills and satisfies your requests and needs, saving you time and effort.
Alexa is not only useful, but also fun. In addition to satisfying requests and needs, it can also entertain with stimulating or playful activities, satisfy curiosity and propose interesting news and keep you updated with the latest news or information on the area that interests you most.
Communicating with Alexa is simple: just interact naturally with Amazon Echo just like you would a person, speaking at a normal volume and from a distance. It is not necessary to approach the device, nor to raise your voice to make yourself understood.
The use of Alexa is then personalized thanks to the Skills, voice apps that add new features and create an even more personalized experience with Amazon Echo. To activate them, simply access the Alexa App and activate them by simply clicking on the ACTIVATE button. They will thus become part of the Alexa Voice Service, inside the Amazon Echo device, and will thus be immediately available.
Amazon Alexa lives in the cloud and gets smarter, automatically delivering new features to your device. The more you use Alexa, the more Alexa will adapt to your patterns, vocabulary and preferences, with new features continuously updated.
