Well I have the Amazon Alexa and then had it for about a month and it is absolutely wonderful, you can search for a Recipes any kind of thing you think you can want to cook you can even tell you how to cook a hotdog really I am so serious. Also I will set timers various timers not just one. It will tell you the weather, and you can call people and I repeat you can call people that have an Amazon.are any Amazon echo they both work the same so you can make clear phone calls through device as long as they're in your database on your phone. So just a wonderful wonderful thing plus plays music anything you can think of I mean literally anything you can think of from listen to music from the 20s and 30s I have audible books it can read books through your device if you have those downloaded and can't think of the Amazon tablet right the top of my head but it'll read the books if you have books on there it will read those books as well so a very smart little device to having your home and you can also hook up with the devices to turn your lights on to but there are more devices coming out that will work through this last such as crockpots, coffee makers,, stats, Doraville's, locks for your door to open your door so such a wonderful little device is it is something I really didn't think I would use very much but I'm finding out that I use it quite a bit and you can listen to various baseball Games so there's so much on this device that I don't even know about and I'm learning new things every day, oh and yes there are games, you can play Jeopardy and word jams and the hangman your sis and List and List things that are available on this thing to entertain yourself so they're 35 bucks at Best Buy I think they are as much as 50 bucks for the echo.. But if you were an Amazon prime member you can get the Amazon Alexa which has the large speaker and it and you can spread the payments out into five payments which makes it really more affordable so Amazon prime is a nice thing to have so much my Amazon Alexa so I can say all the other fun to store did the other fun thing they have is a skill that is called guard dog and you can say guard dog and this big ferocious dog will start barking at various random times so it sounds like you have a very large dog in your area so thought it was kind of cool so cold you can download the Amazon Alexa app onto your phone and use and use it to call your friends that have echo dots or have the Amazon Alexa app on their phone as well so there are several ways to use this
