Alexa reminders
From time to time we have to decipher our Alexa reminders.
Cows in Truro = Towels in Tourer Bubble sex = Rubble sacks Some we have no idea what we wanted to be reminded about. How you any odd reminders come from Alexa? macafee2 |

Another reminder.
EVERYTHING that Alexa hears and says is stored in a computer file behind a cloud somewhere. Alexa's mic is always on! |

I don’t honestly see the point of having one. I was given one “free” with my new BT account when I moved house. But to get it working I had to register with Amazon. And I will not deal with Amazon after they cloned my credit card twice. Naturally they denied it.
So I sold the Alexa to another forum member.

Well, I on the other hand love Alexa and my home automation that I can control with it.
Security cameras, video doorbell, smart plugs, lighting, A/C and heating for home. Photography studio lighting, cctv and heating. Boat systems monitoring/control for Bilge pumps, anchor pro monitoring system, dehumidifiers, engine room frost heaters and immersion/calorifier etc all work seamlessly with our Alexa Show units. Each to their own but I love them
