Amazon Alexa commands are growing fast

When Amazon Alexa launched in 2014, its main functions were playing music and setting alarms.

Alexa commands now span heating, lighting, and entertainment systems.

Users can adjust a thermostat, dim the lights, or change TV channels through short voice requests.

Echo devices also connect with security cameras, allowing footage checks or clip retrieval by voice.

Some of the newer Alexa commands focus on convenience in daily routines.

For example, you can ask Alexa to play music in specific rooms or across the entire house, giving you full control of multi-room audio without opening an app.

Smart home owners can ask Alexa to show camera feeds or search recordings by subject, such as asking to see all clips of pets in the backyard.

Frequent travelers can have Alexa store important details like a loyalty number or flight information, saving time when booking or checking in.

Fire TV users benefit from commands that jump straight to a channel or app, cutting out the need to scroll through menus.

Even grocery shopping has been streamlined, as Echo devices can let Whole Foods know you’ve arrived for a pickup order.

These examples reflect how Alexa commands are becoming tools for everyday life, not just voice experiments.

Alexa Plus has extended these abilities. The upgrade introduces memory for personal details and more flexible responses.

For instance, saying, ‘Alexa, I’m chilly,’ can adjust the heating automatically.

Alexa commands can also save details such as frequent flyer numbers for future use.

And the commands have also expanded into cars with Echo Auto.

Drivers can place calls, play music, and request roadside assistance through Amazon Alexa while driving.

This brings the same functions found in the home into everyday travel.

Echo devices in the smart home

The smart home remains a key area for Amazon Alexa.

Echo devices work with Philips Hue, SmartThings, and Lutron to control lighting, appliances, and climate.

Alexa commands also include safety features such as Alexa Guard, which listens for alarms, and Away Mode, which plays background audio to suggest someone is home.

Entertainment functions are growing as well.

Amazon Alexa can manage Fire TV playback, stream music across multiple rooms, and show recipes on Echo Show displays.

Shoppers can check in for Whole Foods grocery pickups, and Alexa commands can even locate a missing Fire TV remote.

Personalization through Alexa Plus has improved responses further.

The assistant remembers preferences and gives answers based on context.

With more than 200 Alexa commands available, Echo devices now serve as connected hubs for managing smart home tasks, media, and travel.
