The Echo Show is Amazon’s newest voice assistant gadget. This time around, Alexa comes with a screen so she can play videos, show you your events, and let you see search results rather than having them read aloud to you. It seems a little contradictory for a voice assistant at first, but the Echo Show has a few advantages over its tubular counterpart. Here’s how to set yours up.
To set up your Echo Show, plug in the power cable that came in the box and connect it to the Show. After a moment, it will boot up and ask you to connect to a Wi-Fi network. Pick your network from the list.
Use the split-screen keyboard to enter your Wi-Fi password. The keyboard is designed so you can grab the Show with both hands and type with your thumbs. While it can be a little awkward, depending on the size of your hands, it’s easier than hunting and pecking.
Next, you’ll have to enter your Amazon email address and password using the on screen keyboard.
If you have two-factor authentication enabled (and you should), you’ll need to enter the six digit code generated by your authenticator app.
Next, confirm your time zone.
You’ll have to agree to the Alexa terms and conditions. Tap Continue.
If there are any updates available (and there probably are), you’ll have to download and install them before you continue.
