We live in rural MO and just got highly reliable fiber optic internet. I am so excited to set up smart home devices (which I just purchased through Amazon Prime with help from your video suggestions). So happy I found your pretty much binging it so I can learn all I can about setting up.

Excellent video Craig I bought a lot of Echo devices for friends and family through your link and was able to share or show them your channel to watch these two videos. Hopefully they will all subscribe to your channel. Thanks again!!!!

Awesome video!! Love the way he talked, not too fast, gave very clear directions!!

PERFECT timing Craig! Got the echo for christmas, but it has to arrive first (ordered via internet with a bit of a delay) and this will definitely help me!

[MalcolmJames-sgzg]

Thinking of getting one, But I wasn't sure if it was too complicated, But now seeing your video, It seems easy than I thought, THANKS well explained 👍

[ModernDayTech]

Perfect timing for a lot of people today! Merry Christmas to you and your family!

All this is new to me but I will do my best.

This is very handy when people have a new echo dot.

Hi Craig, great video. Can you help me with a problem I have?
I wish to set up an Echo for an elderly lady who doesn’t have a smart phone.
Can I use my Amazon account with my iPhone and then bring my phone away.
It won’t be used for contacting people, just for listening to radio programs.
She is almost blind and can’t tune into stations on her radio.
I would be grateful for any advice you can give me.
Thanks a lot.
Eamonn.

Want to buy an Echo 2 for my mom who is in a nursing home. She can no longer see good enough to dial a phone or use a TV remote. I saw another lady who was blind use one, and I thought it was a fantastic idea. She could do a lot with one.

good that this is a video, if it was a book, it would be worn out by now. My echo is waking me up for the last 3 nights at 1:30 unsolicited song.I tried to set quiet mode and didn;t work. So, I reset and now no way to set up again, Watching over and over to see what is wrong.

[jimpolutnik]

I was wondering what device should I start up with I’m thinking in the future of switching Assistance I like listening to music

[ameliegarcia]

Hi. Very useful video. I got given this wonderful toy today at work. I'm in education. Any great tips in how to use it and cool stuff it can do in a classroom?

[jimnicosia]

Craig, What is the purpose of the microphone dot on the second generation device ?

[saphireonyx]

Mine just keeps on saying searching for devices I dont have the dot though. I just got it for xmas and its driving me nuts and I'm a techie lol

[babatunde]

5:17 i never get this screen it just says select your amazon echo and searching for devices and when I connect it to the wifi it stays on the same screen even though its connected. What do I do?

[edwinragland]

Hey Craig I gave four 3rd gen dots and a spot as Christmas presents need to forward this vid ASAP to them, Hope You and Yours had a Great Christmas, thanks for all the video's and Merry Christmas to You and Yours.

[travisscott]

[jerryetzler]

Got eco 3rd generation. It works great but the green light comes on periodically and won't shut off. It says I have a message but when I go to phone it says Im not set up
