Amazon adds intercom feature to its Echo product

Public Service Announcement

If you were looking for an excuse to get another Amazon Echo, the company has added a feature to push you over the edge – an internal intercom feature.

Now when someone has multiple echos in one home, they can use them as an internal intercom.  Set-up and activating it is a snap.  Here’s how:

Let’s say you have one Echo in your family room, and one in the bedroom.  You want to call from the bedroom.  You’d just say:

“Alexa, call bedroom.”

In order for the other person to answer, they would say:

“Alexa, answer.”

Each echo unit would be named after the room that it’s in (such as Living Room, Office, Bedroom, etc.)
