Alexa-App not available at CH-AppStore. Certain functions only limited or not available

Amazon Echo connects to the cloud-based Alexa Voice service to play music, make calls, set alarms and timers, check
calendars, weather, traffic and sports results, ask questions, manage to-do and shopping lists, operate compatible smart home devices and more. Just ask.

Just ask for a song, artist or genre from Amazon Music, Spotify, TuneIn and more. Multiroom music lets you play music on your echo devices in different rooms (available for Amazon Music, TuneIn and soon Spotify; Bluetooth is not supported). In addition, Echo can play audio books, radio stations, the news and more.

Make calls and send messages to anyone with an echo device or the Alexa App. Or quickly connect to other echo devices in your home using your voice alone.

New loudspeakers with Dolby technology fill the room with 360° sound, precise sound, deep bass and clear high pitches at high volume.

With seven microphones, directional beam technology and noise cancellation, Echo hears you from every direction - even when music is playing.

Just ask Alexa to control your compatible lamps, thermostats, switches and more.

Alexa constantly learns new things and gets new functions and skills. Just ask Alexa to play music in other rooms, call a taxi with mytaxi, order a pizza and more.
