What is the Amazon 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 a music alarm (Amazon Music, Apple Music, Spotify & TuneIn supported), see lyrics with Amazon Music, see your calendar, browse and listen to Audible audiobooks, and more.
Personalise your Spot with a collection of clock faces to suit your style or set a photo background from Prime Photos. Plus, make calls to almost anyone, or make video calls to compatible Echo devices or Skype.
Echo Spot features second-generation far-field technology with four microphones, beam-forming technology and enhanced noise cancellation, so it can hear you from across the room, even while music is playing.
If you have more than one Echo, Alexa responds intelligently from the Echo you're closest to with ESP (Echo Spatial Perception).

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 bedside table 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. Learn more about Bluetooth speakers and devices that work well with Echo Spot.
Plus, with multi-room music, play your favourites throughout your home across multiple Echo devices (available for Amazon Music, TuneIn and Spotify, Bluetooth not supported).
Info at a glance
For news and information you can see and hear, just ask Alexa for your video flash briefing from the BBC, The Telegraph, and more. Curious about the latest film trailers or show times? Just ask.
Echo Spot helps keep you organised 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.
Voice-control your music
Echo Spot provides hands-free voice control for your music. Watch as the display comes alive to show song lyrics (in UK only), curated playlists and album art with Amazon Music. Listen to 50 million songs with Amazon Music Unlimited.
Echo Spot also connects to Apple Music, Spotify and TuneIn, giving you voice control for all of your music. Echo Spot is Bluetooth-enabled so you can stream other popular music services such as Apple Music from your phone or tablet.
Control your smart home
Use Echo Spot to see a live camera feed from the baby’s room or your front door. Turn on the fan or dim the lights 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.
Echo Spot works with smart home devices such as cameras, lights, TVs, plugs, thermostats and more. Learn more about compatible smart home-connected devices, including starter kits for easy setup from brands such as Ring, Arlo, Philips Hue, Ikea, TP-Link, WeMo, Hive, Sony and others.
Always getting smarter
Alexa is always getting smarter—the more you use Echo Spot, the more Alexa adapts to your speech patterns, vocabulary and personal preferences. And because Spot is always connected, updates are delivered automatically.
Just in the last few months we've added Alexa calling and messaging, multi-room music and reminders, along with skills from third-party developers.
Simple to set up & use
1. Plug in the Echo Spot
2. Connect to the internet using the Echo Spot
3. Just ask for music, weather, news and more
Use the Alexa App to connect music services you already use such as Spotify. Link your calendar from Gmail, G Suite, iCloud, Outlook.com or Office365. Set up your compatible smart home devices from Philips Hue, TP-Link, WeMo, SmartThings, Ring, Arlo, Nest and more. Control your timers and set reminders, and much more. Alexa App is available for iOS, Android and Fire devices.
