What is Echo Spot?

Echo Spot brings you everything you love about Alexa, in an all-new stylish and compact design that can show you things. Just ask to see the weather, get the news with a video flash briefing, set an alarm, see music albums from Prime Music, view your calendar, browse and listen to Audible audiobooks, and more. Personalize your Spot with a collection of clock faces to suit your style or set a photo background from Prime Photos. Plus, make calls to friends and family or make video calls to anyone with an Echo Spot or the Alexa App.

Echo Spot features far-field technology with four microphones, beamforming technology, and enhanced noise cancellation, so it can hear you from across the room-even while music is playing.

Minimalist design, maximum entertainment

Echo Spot provides hands-free voice control for your music. Watch as the display comes alive to show album art, custom stations, and curated playlists with Amazon Music. Echo Spot also connects to Apple Music, Spotify, Radioplayer, and Deezer—giving you voice control for all of your music. You can also listen to audiobooks from Audible, podcasts, radio stations, news briefs, and more. Echo Spot is Bluetooth-enabled so you can stream other popular music services like Apple Music from your phone or tablet.

Use Echo Spot to see a live camera feed from the nursery or your front door. Turn on the fan, dim the lights, or control the TV from the couch-all without lifting a finger. Control multiple devices at scheduled times or with a single voice command, like locking the doors and turning off the lights when you go to bed

Be together more

Make hands-free voice calls to any of your contacts, or video calls to friends and family who have an Echo Spot or the Alexa App. With Drop In enabled, instantly connect with other Echo devices in your home. For example, you can drop in to ask what time dinner will be ready, see the baby's nursery, or check in with a close relative. With Alexa Announcements you can also use Echo Spot to broadcast a quick, one-way message to all other Echo devices in your home.

Set up your voice profile and teach Alexa to recognize your voice. When you say, “Alexa, call Mom,” Alexa will call your mom, even if you have multiple users in your home. With the Alexa App, conversations and contacts go where you go. When you're away from home, use the app to make a quick call or send a message to your family's Echo.

Info at a glance

For news and information you can see and hear, just ask Alexa for your video flash briefing from CBC, CTV News, and more. Curious about the latest movie trailers or showtimes? Just ask.

Echo Spot helps keep you organized at home. Start a timer in the kitchen and watch as it counts down, or easily see and manage your family's calendar. Sign in to the Alexa App to take your to-do and shopping lists with you. Just add an item to the list from home, and whoever is out shopping will see it added instantly on their Alexa App.

Alexa has skills

Alexa has many skills and counting. Ask about your daily commute, control your lights, check your flight status, and more. Create your own personal skills and custom responses with Alexa Skill Blueprints. Just say “Alexa, help me get started with skills.”

New skills are being added all the time. Discover them in the skills section of the Alexa app or visit the skills store.

Designed For any room

Echo Spot is small and compact, and fits easily into any room of your home. The compact size and viewing angle of the screen make Echo Spot ideal for use on a nightstand or desk as a smart alarm clock that can also turn your lights on and off, show your commute time, get the weather, or show your calendar. Or use Spot in the kitchen to easily set and see timers, call friends and family, see shopping and to do lists, and more.

Echo Spot can connect directly to speakers using a 3.5 mm stereo cable or Bluetooth to add voice control to your home stereo system in the living room or den. Plus, with multi-room music, play your favourites throughout your home across multiple Echo devices (Bluetooth not supported for multi-room music).
