Tech giant Amazon has launched a new feature that allows users to make audio and video calls on Echo devices. The feature was earlier announced in September 2020. A total of seven participants can be added in an audio or video call on Echo devices including Echo Dot, Echo Show and others.
With the help of the Alexa app, Echo users have the option to create and name particular groups to make these calls. The group calling feature may also get integrated into the Alexa app as well in future. Using this feature, users can simply give a order such as “Call my family” and it will automatically connect to the group the user has created.
Currently, the people can enjoy this feature in 14 countries — Austria, Australia, Brazil, Canada, France, Germany, India, Ireland, Italy, Mexico, New Zealand, Spain, the US, and the UK. There are no limits on the duration of calls while calling or receiving via Echo Group calling. However, users can also use video-conferencing apps.
