Ratings and reviews

Smart home integration is bad, and getting worse. Want to use a routine....good luck, it might work. The endless spamming of "by the way" plugs is frustrating. There is no permanent way to stop this. Amazon is rapidly falling behind the competition. Do better. Unwanted notifications on Alexa devices that cannot be be turned off. Disappointing and frustrating!

Lag time is substantial. I acquired a boatload of Amazon devices for family communication, including senior monitoring. The app is much, much slower than comparable camera/communication apps and devices. You'll wait so long for the app to open a device interface that your intended recipient has left the room. I don't know why I'd use the app for anything else. It should work for comms, but it's slow. And of course you'll spend a lot of time turning off ads on the Show devices.

This app was excellent prior to downsizing their staff. Now it can't even tell me the weather unless I say it a very specific way. I used to be able to check showtimes, or what businesses were open in my area. The convenience of having these devices is greatly lessened in quality. I would definitely choose another product if I were going to purchase again. We have several Alexa devices in our home and it's disappointing how poor the qualities become.
