James,

What country are you in? The Amazon Echo devices are only officially supported 
in the US, Germany and I can't remember if it is Australia and/or the UK. I am 
in Canada and officially you can't buy an Echo here and the Alexa app is not 
available in the canadian app store.

Regards,
Sieghard
