Hello Sandy! You can make calls with your compatible Alexa devices using simple phrases. You can call people on their phones or on their compatible Echo devices. Alexa Calling does not support calls to the following types of numbers: Emergency service numbers (for example "911"), premium-rate numbers (for example "1-900" numbers, or toll numbers), three-digit numbers / abbreviated dial codes (for example "211"), international numbers (numbers outside of the U.S., U.K., Canada, and Mexico), and dial-by-letter numbers (for example "1-800-FLOWERS"). To start communicating through your Echo device, you will need to add your contacts to your Alexa account. Once you have added your contacts, you can mark your favorite contact to reach them faster, or set up an emergency contact. Here is how you can add contacts to your Alexa account: 1. Open the Alexa app. 2. Select ‘Communicate’ from the bottom navigation bar. 3. Select the contact icon in the top right corner. 4. Select the menu icon in the top right corner. 5. Select ‘Add Contact’ to add individual contacts or select ‘Import Contacts’ to enable Alexa to upload contacts from your device’s address book. Hope this helps! Have a great day!
