A:AnswerHello, Nan60! The main difference is the upgraded camera on the device. The camera is now a 2 MP vs a 1 MP camera. The other differences are the ability to look in while you are away with the built-in camera and the ability to control compatible smart home devices with your motion. Have a great day!
A:AnswerBandMom, I'd love to help with your question! The Echo Show 5 comes with Alexa enabled, but you can press the mute button on top of the device if you would like to disable voice commands, and stop Alexa from listening. To view your Ring video feeds, without using voice commands through Alexa, you can open up your devices list and select your Ring Video Camera by following these steps: 1. Swipe inward from the right side of your Echo Show's screen. If you tap on your screen, you'll see a little arrow appear on the right side of the screen to help you decide where to swipe. 2. Select Smart Home from the list of icons.
3. Find your Ring Video Camera in your list of devices and click on it to display the camera footage. I hope this helped answer your question, have an amazing day!
A:AnswerHi ET2021,
The Echo Show 5 does work with the Ring Doorbell & Floodligths.
Before starting, you'll need to download Amazon's Alexa app, if you haven't already done so
1. Open Alexa. In the upper left-hand corner, you'll see three horizontal bars. Tap them.
2. In the menu that appears, tap Skills & Games.
3. On the next screen, search for Ring in the search box.
4. After you've found Ring, tap the "enable" button.
5. Next, Alexa will ask you to sign in to your Ring account. Doing so will link your Ring account to your Alexa account.
6. After signing in, you'll be asked to discover devices. Tap the Discover Devices button. All of your 7. Ring devices should appear and be connected to Alexa automatically. If you don't want Alexa to integrate with a particular Ring device, simply tap Forget on the right side.
Thank you

A:AnswerHello Donn, you want to know if their is a fee to call people using Amazon Echo Show 5. You will be able to use your Echo Show 5 for calling for free, as long as the other person has the Alexa App or another Amazon Echo device. The other Amazon Echo device does not have to a screen. Hope this has answered your question. Have an amazing day!
A:AnswerHi Amon,
The screen itself is 5". (It gets measured like a TV, from corner to corner, diagonally.) I hope this answers your question. Have a great day.
A:AnswerHi There,
Thanks for your question! Yes, you can pair the two! First, you will need to log into your Amazon Alexa app and the Swann Security app with your login credentials and then enable the Swann Security Skill in the Alexa App!
Here is how:
-Open the Alexa App to ensure she has already discovered and paired the two devices
-If they are not linked you will tap add new device and follow the on screen prompts via both apps
-Once devices are paired Alexa responds to the name assigned to your camera (or channel) in the Swann Security app. An alternate name can also be given to your camera through the Alexa app. -Avoid using any special characters like % and numbers. You may want to consider changing the name of your camera if this is the case. (Use clear, distinct words that Alexa will find easier to understand and that don’t overlap with
any other smart devices in your home).
Then, to connect to your camera and show live video, just say:
“Alexa, show <camera name>”
To stop streaming your camera, simply say:
“Alexa, go home” or “Alexa, stop”
Hope that helps!
A:AnswerHi Latte! Yes your alarm clock will work even without internet connection on your Echo Show 5. It is important to note that you will not be able to create an alarm schedule without internet connection though. Thanks for your question, have a great day!
A:AnswerHello Eash! While you can't specifically set up Google Photos or Apple iCloud Photos directly with the Echo Show, you can definitely use the Amazon Photos app and use that service with the photos you have by allowing your photos to be uploaded to Amazon Photos automatically. This will allow you to use the Amazon Photos service to show all photos that are uploaded to the app on an Echo Show device. I hope this helps answer your question and that you have a awesome day!
A:AnswerHi Hunter! The Disney + App is not yet available on Echo Show devices, but YouTube is available to watch on your device! You can access YouTube by asking, "Alexa, go to video home," to view all streaming apps, or just ask, "Alexa, open YouTube." Thanks for your question, have a great day!
A:AnswerHi Khary,
You can pair your Arlo cameras with Alexa via skills in your Alexa app. Make sure that your Arlo camera is powered on and connected to the cloud. Enable the Arlo skill in one of the following ways:
Ask Amazon Alexa “Alexa, enable Arlo skill” to receive instructions in your Alexa app to link your Arlo account with your Alexa account.
In the Alexa app, search for the Arlo Skill, then click Enable Skill to link your Arlo account with your Alexa account.
From there, make sure you have notifications turned on and Alexa will be ready to help.
Hope that helps!
