A: The Echo Dot doesn't use any operating system. The initial setup process requires any smart phone or tablet (Android or iOS) to set up. After that, the device uses your wifi to connect to the internet.
A: Very loud if you have up to 100% just did as a test to see and I could her just talking 4 rooms away! I keep mine in my bedroom at 36% its next to my doorway and I can put music on and even listen music and hear in next room.
Q: Why do the 4th generation Echo and Echo Dots have white power cords?
A: I've wondered this myself they in past had black with black. When I got my device and was white cord I was shocked. Something simple but its tacky looking.
A: Hi there! The answer is yes! I currently do this with my mother who lives in another state and it works great! Hope this helps!
A: Alexa sends bad update to older devices to force you to buy more. I have had several after two years go into update mode and nothing fixes it. I called Amazon multiple times and everything they tell me to do I do and it never stopped. I left it plugged in and two months later still updating. Removed app and re added. Removed device and re added. Hard reset. Literally nothing will fix it.
A: Yes you can listen to different music on your echos or videos if you have a show.
Q: CAN I CONNECT MY ECHO DOT TO MT PC?
A: Alexa can play music through its own built in speaker or through a 3.5 mini plug cord if a cord is attached to Alexa. When a cord is attached, Alexa can play through another device or speaker that has a 3.5 audio input port. Alexa does not broadcast with Bluetooth, only from its own speakers or an attached cord. A 3.5 mini cord is NOT included with Alexa. Cord must be purchased separately.
