Alexa is already in the app store. What's the story?
- niroze 10y agoThank you! People all caught up in the buzz. Granted, I'll participate in the Kickstarter, but this isn't truly news once you realize Core will be running Android. I don't think that is common knowledge.
- vhold 10y agoDoes the Alexa app actually let you use voice to ask questions and issue commands, or is it just an app to configure your Alexa devices?
- crumpled 10y agoOh. It's a companion app. I didn't check closely enough. I only checked to see if there was an Alexa app. When I read the announcement the thing I really wondered was: If Amazon has an Android port for Alexa, what's the motivation for making an exclusive deal with Pebble? Why is that preferable to offering it on the app store to everyone?
