Amazon Alexa Apk

Not able to setup on Android. I m using gen1 echo with Android Oreo device. I tried it to setup on my phone but it didn't work. I tried all options like turning off smart Wi-Fi connection, resetting Echo device But no luck. I think gen1 echo no longer works. Wasted my money on this $100 paper weight..

Are the negative reviewers getting paid to post nonsense? App works fine. For those seriously having issues i suggest uninstalling the app rebooting then reinstalling the app As for the you tube issue: Google forced Amazon's removal of you tube because Amazon won't sell google products

Alexa should also connect with Mobile data network if wifi is not available nearby... Otherwise its useless if we r out of wifi zone.. Plz consider this...

Horrible. Won't even connect to my Damn Wi-Fi and its not my Wi-Fi that's the problem, every other device works just fine. WASTE. OF. MONEY

After the last 3 updates, I can no longer access anything other than the home page of the app, without the app trying to force me to set up calls and messaging, a feature that is meant to be opt in only, and I do not want or need to use. I can't add new skills from the app or even access my settings, because the setup page pops up and won't allow me to back out of it. If this isn't fixed soon, I'll be dropping my alexa altogether.

No where near as easy to use as Google Assistant / Home apps... No material design for Android... No native option to open Alexa, whereas Google Assistant just hold the home button... Big thing is I don't need to buy hardware with Google for it to work (just use your phone if you want, don't buy any speakers), Amazon are really trying to push you spending money on Echo devices. Also Google Assistant is far far more natural in understanding what you are saying, Alexa requires very precise commands and doesn't always get them right, and I hate the excuse people are saying that "you have to make your own 'skills'", no I really shouldn't need too! This should have machine learning and just understand me however I say it! Google does that perfectly by comparison... And one final thing, I can access, control and delete all my user data with Google, Amazon on the other hand - nothing, and yet Google is apparently the "bad boy" for user data mining!... Bottom line Google is simply the cheapest and highest performing option, and I've thoroughly tested both. Sorry Amazon.

Just updated to the latest version, and lost my language setup. I live in Canada and don't have English (Canada) anymore. Can't access skills anymore. Is this an update or going backwards?

It amazed me that Amazon scraped by for years with a barely working, sorry excuse for an app, only now deciding it was time for a change. I was actually happy to see this reskin, hoping they'd finally addressed the horrible performance issues. I was optimistic, only to find out it's just that - a reskin. The app is still as slow and unresponsive than it ever was. Plus, Amazon shoehorned this stupid "calling" feature that I do not want my Echo to have, and I have no way to disable it or opt out. This app is garbage, and the Echo is slowly turning into a paperweight. Won't be long until I give up on it altogether.

I like it other than remembering the "skills" commands

I am strictly reviewing the App. Not Alexa or the Dot. As far as setting up the Dot with the App that was fine. Other than that the App is frustrating. It is poorly laid out and can be slow. The Skill search is really lacking. There are a lot of pointless Skills out there. That in of it self is fine. Amazon just needs to filter those out unless they are specifically searched for. I don't have many Skills enabled due to this. To much garbage to sort through to even find something remotely interesting.
