How To Call 911 with Amazon Alexa
Description:
Can you use Amazon Alexa, Google home, or Siri to dial 911? Yes you can! You just need an Echo Connect and some patience. Recently, our mom asked Brian and I if we could set up an Amazon Alexa speaker in our Grandma’s house. She wanted to set this up just in case Grandma needed to dial an emergency number to get help right away. Instantly, my mind went to those Life Alert commercials we watched while growing up. Do you remember those commercials? They’re the ones with the lady who says “Help, I’ve fallen, and I can’t get up!” – PowerPoint PPT presentation
