You can Talk to Alexa on Your Smartwatch

Amazon Echo devices aren’t the only way you can talk to Alexa, the AI interface was made open-source for other manufacturers to use in their products. One of the most interesting ways manufactures implemented Alexa into their products was through smartwatches. By having Alexa on your smartwatch, you can ask it everything you would normally ask Alexa plus the ability to listen and reply to text messages and phone calls.


There are actually two companies that produce smartwatches with Alexa, Guess and Martian. These two companies actually take a different approach to smartwatches by making them look like normal, analogue watches. The only screen on these devices are the little OLED strip at the bottom of the watch face that shows incoming notifications. To enable Alexa you would press a button on the side of the device and you would ask your question or tell it your command, these watches have speakers in them so you could hear the AI interface reply. The best thing about these watches is that it works on both iPhone and Android. Here’s a list of watches that currently have Alexa on them: http://amzn.to/2v5gM4S.
