DTD1630: A-lady, what do your colours mean?
17/07/2021 Duración: 04minYou can now get your Echo to explain all of her various colour notifications. Here’s what they mean: Yellow - This means that she has a new notification, or a reminder you haven’t responded to. Say, "What are my notifications?" or "What are my messages?" Blue - A circling blue light means she’s listening. If you’re speaking and you don’t see the light, speak louder or check your power source. Red - Solid red means the mic is muted and she cannot hear you. To turn the microphone back on, press the on/off mic button on your Echo. Green - This colour shows when you’re receiving a call, or a Drop In on Echo Show. Purple - This means the device is on the Do Not Disturb setting. You’ll also see a crescent moon in the upper left corner of an Echo Show. You can enable or disabled this by voice or set up a schedule via the app. Note that, if enabled by voice and not turned off again, it is automatically disabled at midnight. ---- Feedback, comments, demos pleas to ✉️ thedottodotpodcast@gmail.com
