    It can access anything if you're looking for information, answer questions or trivia, but if you want to play music, turn on smart home devices, etc. it's challenging. Also, does not pair with as many devices or as easily as Alexa. Even with its restrictions, Amazon seems to be more versatile and user friendly.
