Get a jump on your day with Echo Show 5 and Alexa in your corner. Customize your morning routine to wake up with lights that simulate sunrise and an alarm that plays your favorite song. Glance at your calendar or the news, catch up on a podcast, make video calls to friends and family, set timers, and stream music or shows—all using just your voice.
Paired with compatible light bulbs, thermostats, and more, Echo Show 5 lets you control your smart home using your voice or the interactive display. You can also schedule Routines or even start them with your motion. When you walk into a room, the lamp can turn on or music can start to play—just like that.
Securely access the built-in camera to look around and get peace of mind whenever you want. You can also set up Guard for free in the Alexa app to get mobile alerts if your Echo device detects the sound of a smoke alarm or glass breaking while you’re away. And subscribe to Guard Plus for hands-free calling to emergency response agents through your Echo and more. Learn more about Alexa Guard.
Make hands-free video calls to friends and family who have an Echo Show or the Alexa app. Make announcements to other compatible devices in your home and use Drop In as an intercom between rooms or with favorite contacts.
Catch up on today’s news and sports highlights. Watch TV shows, movies, music videos, or movie trailers from Prime Video, Netflix, and more. Stream music from Amazon Music, Apple Music, and Spotify.
Use Amazon Photos or photos from Facebook to turn your home screen into a digital frame. See your photos rotate with other home screen content or as a slideshow. Prime members also get unlimited cloud photo storage.
