Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Bluetooth speaker is one function, but its purpose seems to be voice command much like smartphones running Android and iOS can do for you. E.g., if you have a Philips Hue, you can say, "Alexa, dim bedroom lights" or "Alexa, turn bedroom off" as well as things like, "Alexa, set an appointment for Tuesday at 5PM." Then you get reminders via the computer voice (although it doesn't sound too robotic), and can track stock prices and sports scores as well as connect to streaming services, e.g., "Alexa, play classic rock."

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Alexa spells, does math, she's an encyclopedia and dictionary too. You can ask her to tell you trivia, jokes and she responds to questions. She does not understand ums and mumbling so you can't hesitate on your question. She plays any music in Amazon prime, reads your audio books too. She can be hooked up to your electronics to make your house a smart house. I just love her!
