Introduction There is no need to scream to call everyone for dinner because Alexa Announcements feature is now available in Echo devices. Just send your message to Alexa and it will broadcast it to the rest of Echo devices that are installed in your house. Know more about this feature in this blog post.


Support For Amazon Echo When you have got Alexa in the house, then there is no need to raise your voice. Having an Amazon Echo device at home means having the best voice assistant at your disposal. Amazon Echo is packed with some of the most mind-blowing features, which we all have heard and used on different occasions.


Echo Dot Setup But then, there are certain features of Amazon Echo that are unknown to the people, which we are going to discuss today.


Amazon Echo Support Discussing known features is no fun, as we all know what Amazon Echo is capable of doing, so why not dig deep into the device and find some amazing features that users couldn’t imagine Amazon Echo had it in the first place.


Alexa Dot Setup The feature that I’m going to share is more of a trick, and it is called ‘Alexa Announcements’. This trick will enable you to make one-way announcements via every Echo device that is installed in your house. So, you can use this trick to gather all your family members onto the dinner table or making everybody ready for an early morning trip. You can take help of Alexa for all these things.


Amazon Echo Setup Amazon calls this feature, ‘a simpler way to quickly get your family on the same page.’ If you were to ask as to which device this feature resembles with, then I’d say ‘an intercom system’. Intercom used to work like this, but then, intercoms became a thing of the past, but Alexa has once again brought the feature in the hands of users.


You just need to say, ‘Alexa, announce that the dinner is ready’ to the closest Echo device. Then, Alexa is going to broadcast ‘Dinner is ready’ to all Echo devices that are installed in the house. But, family members are not going to hear Alexa’s voice, but it is your voice that they will be hearing, so you don’t have to shout anymore when you can broadcast your message to Amazon Echo.


If you want, you can use commands like, ‘Alexa, broadcast’ or ‘Alexa, tell everyone… (Followed by your message)’ and get everybody to listen to your message. You don’t have to screen at the top of your lungs to get everybody ready when Alexa can do it in a smooth fashion.


In a statement issued by Amazon spokesperson, it has been confirmed that this feature is going to work across all Echo suite of devices automatically. A number of useful functions and features have been rolled out a few weeks ago, but those are confined to the people residing in the US and Canada as of now. People from other nations will be able to get access to those tools in the near future.


The feature that I have discussed in the post is going to be available in a number of Echo devices such as Echo, Echo Spot, Echo show, Echo Plus and Echo Dot. But, Alexa Announcements is a feature that won’t be available in mobile Amazon Tap.


This feature is going to be a hit among users because there are millions of customers who use one of the aforementioned Echo devices, so having the capability of making announcements in Alexa so that everybody could hear it is something that all Echo users will look forward to. Amazon has also announced a wide range of other multi-device features such as Multi-Room Music, Alexa Calling and Messaging, Drop In and device-todevice intercom system.
