Amazon’s Alexa system is one of the most exciting pieces of technology released in the last several years. Being able to tell an electronic speaker like the Echo to play music or engage in conversation is both a great deal of delightful fun and a testament to how far voice-recognition technology has advanced as well as the influence wireless information technology has had on our everyday lives. Even better, Alexa can synchronize the Echo to many things inside and outside the household - hence, you can order food via the internet just by saying a few words to it, or you can even turn the lights on and off by speaking to the Echo instead of heading for a switch.

Outstanding content

Great audiobook. This course introduced a really innovative way of testing Alex's skills. Outstanding content and experienced instructor - can't wait to learn all that he has outlined in the course intro. I highly recommend this course.

Absolutely amazing

The audiobook is absolutely amazing. At first, I thought that he was going too fast and maybe got some things wrong, and I had to go over some parts of the audio several times before I understood what it was that I was doing wrong. I have come to realize that his teaching technique is very effective in part because it forces the learner to slowly learn the amazon Alexa Echo service fundamentals.

Thankful

The audiobook is good so far. It does explain most of the basics required at an adequate depth. Great course, the full development cycle is represented with industry standards every step of the way. Explanations of how to change your Echo’s speaker circuit board. Let's see how the rest of the course goes!. Many thanks.

Comprehensive

After listening to Amazon Alexa and Echo Dot by Mark Howard's audiobook, I finally see what all the hype is about and how to get the most use out of Alexa. This step-by-step manual is jam-packed with useful information. The author is very honest with his thoughts as well and gives great tips that anyone can use. I liked how the book broke everything down in easy to understand terms whether you’ve had Alexa for a while or just getting her out of the box. It’s like getting the inside scoop on Alexa and Amazon’s brains.

I enjoyed learning more about what to expect out of this device and the terms that may be used. Kudos to the author for also adding images to show what he is talking about and how things should look. Some people are visual learners so this really helps. In addition, I think that if you’re new to using Alexa this is a great starting point for you. If you use Alexa already then this is still good to use because it will tell you some tricks you don’t get in the basic manual.

Looks comprehensive as of this moment and I like what I see. If not in this audiobook, an advanced Alexa course would be super where we can making sure our Echo can connect to the internet and solving problems with weak signals or problematic passwords, and also getting some solutions on home automation. This capability is part of the next generation Echo devices such as the Show and the Spot. Thank you! Super job so far.

Great quality

Great quality and also well explained of the various smart devices we can use with Alexa and troubleshooting guides for problems we may encounter getting them to work with the app. The very clear and most important thing it starts from the very basics. A very good course and useful for Alexa's skill development. Thanks to the author.

Easy to read and understand

Purchased this guide along with three others, I can trash the others. After working through this book I feel that I understand and can use the Echo devices with confidence. I have a fire cube and four echo dots. Now going for the smart home items. You won’t need any other books to feel capable of using your devices. Easy to read and understand.

5-star

I have used Echo devices with Alexia for a long time. I needed to create a routine and I didn’t know where to begin. I liked the step by step instructions and easy to follow format. I would recommend this to friends. I give it five stars.

For newbies

I know nothing about these devices, and now I know a little bit! A good resource for the newbies out there!

Important info learned

This information is amazingly real and important to me. This guide is depicted in clear vernacular and direct. All tips and traps are uncommonly valuable and supportive. In a general sense, buy this guide if you feel like there are a couple of things that the writers of the official customer's guide neglect to cover and you would incline toward not to glance through the Internet each time you have to add another capacity to your Alexa to help with your consistent plan.

Interesting topic

The benefit of this author's experience saved me a lot of time getting started. I am looking forward to Alexa's growth. Great help in setting up and utilizing the Echo and Alexa devices. I feel sure this information will make my Alexa more useful now.
