At home virtual assistants like Ocho Amazon become increasingly common. Until now, more than 100 million devices that carry Alexa AI Amazon have been sold, (per verge), making it quite possible you have one or at least experienced one.

Suddenly, your Echo Amazon device is just a piece of hardware that takes the room on your coffee table, doesn’t do a lot of things.
These features, however, just scratch the surface. Maybe it happens that you haven’t fully explored your echo function. There are many more echoes you can do if you know where to look for or the right things to be asked. Here are the thirteen things you can do to take the Amazon Alexa experience to the next level.

Change your Echo’s voice
If you will change your Echo’s name, why not play with different sounds too. Echo You are present with the default feminine sound selected most users to be saved. This works very well. If something about the way he speaks just bothered you for a reason, there is an option for you to choose.
