There are some fun festive things to ask Alexa this Christmas.
It’s finally Christmas, and if you’ve got an Echo smart speaker sitting somewhere at home, there are plenty of festive things you can ask Alexa. Amazon’s chatty assistant is packed with Christmas-themed responses that can help you get the turkey just right, keep the playlists flowing, and even give a brutally honest verdict on your festive jumper.
So, if you’ve got Echo speakers dotted around the house, here are some great things to ask Alexa now and throughout the Christmas period.
“Alexa, how should I decorate my Christmas tree?”
“Alexa, play Christmas music”
“Alexa, how many sleeps until Christmas?”Just ask and Alexa will tell you when the big is coming and you can open those presents.
“Alexa, call Santa”This is a nice bonus for families. Via Alexa, Santa and his elves have a new message every day. Just ask and Alexa will call.
“Alexa, play Magic Christmas Radio”You can listen to hundreds of different festive radio stations just by asking. They are packed with all the favourite tunes.
“Alexa, play XMAS by Kylie”Yes, you can hear the famous popster’s new festive song via Amazon Music.
“Alexa, sing Snacking Santa”You can also ask the assistant to sing a duet with Santa.
“Alexa, how ugly is my Christmas jumper?”Ask the question and Alexa will give you her honest opinion about your Christmas sweater.
“Alexa, have I been naughty or nice?”Answer Santa’s questions to find out which of his lists you’re on.
“Alexa, what are my deals?”Check out Amazon’s top trending deals based on your purchase history and Amazon bestsellers.
“Alexa, wake me up at 8am on Christmas Day”This will make sure you don’t wake up too late to get the dinner in the oven.
“Alexa, set a three hour turkey timer”Once the bird is in the oven and the timer is running, you can go back to bed for a bit.
Any Echo device, including the Dot, Spot, or Max, should be able to answer all of these Christmas queries. Just make sure your Echo is connected to the web and the microphone is switched on.
