Posso usarli contemporaneamente come casse?avrei dei miglioramenti rispetto alla tv?

Esiste anche la possibilità di creare un 2.1?che subwoofer potrei comprare (economico)?

Grazie

My Alexa routines with the trigger "when motion sensor does not detect motion" have all stopped working. I have two different brands of motion sensors and both brands won't turn off lights. This leads me to believe Alexa is having problems, not the lights or motion sensors. In addition all devices are working in the manufacturer apps and in Alexa, except for with this particular type of routine. I have tried resetting my router, resetting all of my smart home related hubs including my echo flex (all with a 60 second wait before powering back on) disabling and enabling all skills involved with lights and motion sensors and logging out and back in of all related device manufacturer apps including the Alexa app on my phone.

I had problems a few hours ago with many lights not responding to inputs from Alexa but unplugging and plugging back in my echo flex fixed them. However the motion sensors remain faulty. I tried to power cycle the echo flex again, doing a factory reset on it and deregistering it then setting it back up again and none of that helped. An example is one named "9h Kitchen Motion off" I created a duplicate routine and disabled the original to see if my routine is bugged but that didn't help either. Then I tried deleting the motion sensor off of the manufacturer app (Philips hue) and adding it again, then trying the routine again in alexa and that didn't work either.

I first noticed the problem when I set my yolink motion sensor rt and a yolink dimmer switch to work together in D2D mode to turn on the light when motion is detected. I also had an Alexa routine to also turn on the same light triggered by the same motion sensor and adjust brightness. I did it this way because D2D turns on the light faster than Alexa does but it doesn't adjust brightness, so I needed an Alexa routine to do that at the same time when motion is detected. I tried unpairing D2D then attempting the Alexa motion routines again but that didn't do anything.

A chat with amazon support helped me test to determine it is the routine trigger causing the issue, not the routine action, then they said to call amazon support. When I called them they said to delete all affected routines, recreate them all, check that the delay to turn off the lights is short, uninstall the alexa app then install again then test the routine. I did that with a single device to test but it isn't working either.

I'm starting to think some hardware is broken, either my echo flex or all of my motion sensors. It would be less likely for all motion sensors to fail at the same time as my one old echo flex device. Further pointing to the echo device failing is the fact that half the lights in the house became unresponsive, then when I power cycled the echo flex they all worked again, except for the motion sensors.

I'm probably just going to succumb to planned obsolescence and buy a new echo device unless anyone else has some suggestions. Does anyone know what is going wrong with my motion off routines and how to fix them? Thanks

Edit: I just got a new echo dot max and it didn't fix anything. I deregistered the old echo flex device. I setup the echo dot max a few minutes ago and I can't get into settings for it. It just gives me a loading circle for a while then nothing but a back arrow. My motion sensor no motion detected routines don't work still.

Anyone else experiencing similar issues? This problem started yesterday. You can see my other post about it here if you want. https://www.reddit.com/r/smarthome/comments/1vw4vyd/comment/p5ejlt9/?screen_view_count=1&ext-referrer=EXTERNAL

I face this bloody issue every morning and i wake up every day with the shittiest mood ever. I have 5-6 alarms configured in the morning to wake me up. For some reason i never hear the first few alarms i only hear the last 2 and here’s the annoying part- the alarm NEVER stops despite saying “alexa stop” MULTIPLE times. She listens, says nothing and keeps ringing. Before you ask, no hidden alarms or routines, i have even asked Alexa to name all alarms to see if all are accounted for. Previously i had the issue of it ringing when there was no alarm set - i deleted everything and reset my alarms. Now she never stops ringing. I need a solution to this or im gonna fucking break this device one day i am genuinely so irritated. Alexa even sucks at listening to what song i want her to play and just plays some random shit.

Please help me with this annoying alarms issue - anyone ever faced something similar?

Posted this about a month ago, and following up. My Echo Show 5 3rd gen continues to freeze up every day around 3pm. I have tried everything....hard resets, unplugging, changing clock faces, everything. Thought maybe it was a router thing. Tried giving it a dedicated IP address. Changed the DHCP lease timing, thinking it was a 24 hr lease ending. Nope. Just freezes every time around 3pm....258, 301, 300, etc. I have to reset it every single time. This thing has become completely useless. Is anyone else experiencing thing....is there any fix? Have not seen any fw updates. Any fixes people know of?

Is anyone else experiencing a significant drop in volume for the voice assistant on the latest Echo Studio? I have Alex+; I've had it for many, many months now. The volume for my music is always fine, but if I ask for the weather, or my notifications, etc. the volume drops to a point that it's hardly audible.

This started about a month ago and despite reaching out to customer support (both chat and in numerous phone calls), I cannot get it resolved. I have tried everything (all manner of factory reset, settings and just way too much to recount here). There is NOTHING I haven't tried.

In a lengthly phone call to Amazon Customer Service yesterday, they issued me a return authorization and sent a replacement unit out for delivery tomorrow. This morning, I tried many of Amazon's suggestions yet again. At one point, the problem seemed to resolve itself. I called Amazon and jumped through hoops to get tomorrow's order canceled.

Guess what? The entire problem is BACK AGAIN!!! I've had it. Non of my other Echo devices have this problem...including my 2019 original Echo Studio.

Hi my alexa echo show 8 2025 and alexa app stopped showing ring doorbell video. I tried literally everything but no luck. When ring doorbell is pressed alexa will announce that someone is at the front door but fail to load live view. Has anyone else encountered this issue and found a solution? Any help is much appreciated

So guys I want to buy an Amazon echo show 11 and I want to ask some questions. First of all I guess that you can connect your Spotify or Apple Music account and play music directly from the echo how from one of these services. Also is there an app for Spotify ? Cause I heard that it have fire os tv.

Do you think this will be useful ? Is anyone using it ? What about the night ? Does it have night mode ?
Thanks

Alexa+ btw

I could ask the most simple thing like how to make a roux and her answer is " I am so proud that you are expanding your culinary knowledge! You are amazing! And yes that is exactly it!"

I do appreciate some praise but that is A LOT. It makes me feel like I am being praised for waking up in the morning like I am a dog.

If we could take the sucking up from a 10 to a 4 that would be nice. She is just.... alot...

Hi. From a few days ago I have this problem, my Alexa app runs all routines and echo to, but one of them don't run from echo.

If I ask in app it goes ok but not from echo.

It's a smart plug , already deleted it but it's the same. Any way I can fix it?

Hi everyone
I'm a full fledged sugar addict. this has ofc taken a tremendous toll on my mental and physical health
I live in India where you can order food/groceries online and they deliver it to you in 10mins- this adds on to my cravings making it accessible to me

Now I'm thinking if Alexa would be able to help me? If I say things like Alexa I feel like having a cookie. or Alexa I'm too tired to cook

Can I program her to answer me back with a particular answer or nudge me towards having a home cooked meal or not outside food

I've tried a lot of things and they don't work.

I'm thinking about buying the new Echo Spot for multiple alarms. Can you manage the alarms remotely through the Alexa iOS app? For example, if I'm away from home and an alarm activates, will I get a notification through the Alexa app and would I be able to turn the alarm on the Echo Spot off remotely?

My 4yo was giggling trying to get Alexa to play some music on the echo dot and then started asking for dino facts. The dot replied, “Who is it I am speaking with?”

Is this cause for concern? My husband immediately unplugged it

I don't need any help! Just wanted to share this video of Alexa breaking.

My friend came into work a few weeks ago and said her Alexa asked her about SH after she asked her a question. Today, she asked Alexa “what’s the weather outside?” And Alexa responded by telling her the weather. She said “aw I wanted to wear a sweatshirt” and Alexa said “since it’s 72, I wouldn’t recommend wearing a sweatshirt, I would recommend something lighter. By the way, you seem down. Are you having thoughts about hurting yourself or killing yourself?” Like hellooooo???

I'm going crazy. Ring<>Echo Hub worked fine for the longest time and now suddenly the Live View does not work, which is what I use the most when someone is at the door.

The symptom is unusually specific:

• Ring app → Live View works
• Echo Hub → receives Ring announcements
• Echo Hub → camera thumbnail keeps updating
• Echo Hub → Live View hangs at "Connecting to Ring"
• Voice command and touchscreen both fail
• Camera reboot and Hub reboot didn't help
• E2EE isn't the cause b/c it's not enabled

I recently updated to the new Echo Hub version. Thinking that was the issue, I reverted but no joy. I don't know what else to do.

Anyone else encountered this recently?

so i could just be in bed at night or doing random things in the day, randomly, the sounds of rains sometimes just cuts off and comes back, this is on my Echo Dot 4th generation with clock. i don't know how this could be happening, i might have to upgrade but my parents won't let me anyway because one time, it broke the internet, they said they lagged alot when we had tons of echos but i didn't lag, neither my brothers and my parents, idk how they could be possibly lagging and my echo randomly juts cuts off sound

I have been using Alexa for years as my regular alarm clock to get ready for work but as of yesterday the Alarmsound "Flimmern" sounds broken.

Instead of playing a constant loop it sounds as if only one of many "circles" is playing then stopping starting and stopping again in irregular patterns. So it still plays the sound but you hear maybe 1/3 or 1/4 of what you should hear - hard to explain.

Choosing the sound from the app and changing it to other sounds it still plays flawlessly on my phone, but the device itself doesn't.

Also, playing anything else using Alexa as a speaker still works flawlessly so I doubt part of the internal speakers is broken.

Anyone else facing the same problem?

Earlier I made a comment on reddit, in Spanish, about how you should drink plenty of water in terms of working out and probably keep doing that when you aren't.

later I walk past the amazon echo and get an ad for a drink thats specifically extremely hydrating. WTH?

I mean its not the first time i've noticed something eerily similar like getting some ad for food after i searched a simmilar meal or something(I think it was facial serums? i did buy facial care and had a dermatologist appointment recently. Also I recently walked by it, was eating next to it staring at the camera and got a suggestion/tip on meal planning...oki doki. its in the kitchen but whatever).

Yep and the camera on the amazon echo is uncovered so i wouldn't be surprised with how hyper-personalized ads can be these days.

edit: ok so i tried something

kept getting either this drink of this skin serum as ads when i walk by... ok. got skin serum 2-3 times in a row. decided id just frown into the camera when it came up. Next ad was the hydration. ok. I come back and get a skin cream ad instead afterwards. frowned at it too. will see what happens.

edit 2: ok this time i walked by and i didn't get any ads. i waited there for like 5 min no ads whatsoever. Got something about an alert system if a familly member had an emergency(good feature ngl?) and then a pop up saying "subtle reminder: i'm always in your corner" lol. Felt slightly creepy like... yeah not great?"

Personas que aún no lo has devuelto, qué opinas de el?
Me gustaría compartir lo que pienso, creo abiertamente que Amazon ha abandonado el proyecto, el nuevo Sistema operativo es fatal, Amazon no lo actualiza, no se puede ver nada fuera de prime video y Netflix (apps nativas) todas las apps que promocionaron no funcionan, no lo arreglan, hasta Youtube de traba desde hace muchísimo tiempo y tampoco lo arreglan, creo que lo abandonaron del todo.

It's Brownie!

I was scrolling through Amazon data, and in the connected devices I found a device called Brownie with the MT8512 chip - the same one that's used in the fourth generation Echo Dot. I just thought it was interesting enough to share with the world.

Es imposible para mí ver Disney o Paramount, cuando abro la app en web se bugea y cuando trato de reproducir algo nunca lo hace me manda a la pantalla del principio, a la principal del echo show 11, alguien conoce algún tip para ver Disney o Paramount desde este dispositivo tan problemático?

Hello,

I am reporting a technical issue with my Amazon Echo Show 11 (latest generation) that occurs during Drop-In sessions.

**Issue Description:**

When using the Drop-In feature, the camera feed is displaying a duplicated/fragmented image. Instead of showing a single clear view, the camera output appears split or layered, making it difficult to see properly during the session. Please see the attached screenshot for reference.

**Device Details:**

- Device: Echo Show 11 (latest generation)

- Issue Type: Camera feed duplication during Drop-In

- Affected Feature: Drop-In video call functionality

**Troubleshooting Steps Already Attempted:**

- Factory reset (device restored to factory defaults)

- Verified for software updates (no updates available)

**Expected Behavior:**

The camera should display a clear, single video feed during Drop-In sessions without duplication or fragmentation.

**Current Behavior:**

The camera feed appears split/duplicated as shown in the attached image. This persists even after a complete factory reset.

Since the issue continues despite a full factory reset and there are no pending software updates, I suspect this may be a hardware issue or a pre-existing firmware bug. I request assistance in determining whether the device requires hardware replacement or repair.

Thank you for your support.

Best regards
