Although most of us know about this, you’d be surprised at how many users don’t know ghat Alexa is in a lot of other devices.

One such device is the Amazon Fire TV.  An end user not only can run many Amazon Echo skills on their TV, but also have additional features to help them get the most out of the device – and your TV.

Here’s what you need to get Alexa on your TV:

• A newer TV that has a free USB port. 
• A compatible Amazon Fire device (Amazon Fire TV, Amazon Fire TV Stick, etc.)

All of the above devices come with an Amazon-Alexa compatible remote.  Just press the microphone button and say:

“Alexa, open [name of skill]”.

So, what ever skill(s) you have installed on an Alexa device can be accessed through your TV.
