101 of the best voice commands of Amazon Alexa: unlock control of the intelligent home, music and more

Learning Alexa’s best voice commands requires a little time, but doing so is essential for your Amazon Echo music, television and general experience to be the most rewarding it can be.

If you ask what to ask Alexa, the best features may be lost. Alexa’s commands allow the voice assistant who lives inside his smart speaker to bring music, control smart starting devices and bring daily climate updates and news.

Whether you have the Amazon echo, echo show or even the new place of echo, knowing what to tell Alexa is everything.

You can download all Alexa’s skills you want, but if you don’t know what to say, everything is useless.
