    Hey Brett, that's really cool, echo for kids! I have two Google minis and no Amazon echoes, and no kids. 🤣 I'll be sure to share this with friends with children. Great work, as usual👍

    Great video man. Liked every aspect of it. I had to subscribe. Just bought one for my kids but didn’t really know much about it except the key points I read on amazon until now. I’m a Apple fan for device integration. But Amazon may bring me to the Light/Darkside.

    Great Video Brett! I know you are a GH fan but it would be nice to see more videos like this. I personally use both. They both have benefits. I have a GH & GH mini as well as original echo, new echo, echo show, dot, spot...and a INSIGNIA speaker with GH built in...lol! design and sound quality GH wins (especially dot compared to GH mini) but my favorite is the echo spot. It would be nice to see your take on them.

    • @TechWithBrett
      @TechWithBrett  Před 6 lety

      Thanks for the feedback! My main goal is to show off the great features of all products but I am pretty limited with time. Hopefully one day I will be able pump out more videos on more products. I have an Echo but it is still in the box so maybe I should do that next!

    I love the bumper by itself. Ha, would like the blue one. Are these features on regular Alexa too? I only have one right now, but two would be nice to use as an intercom. Google's "Broadcast" feature isn't good for that. I like google better too but find that Alexa turns lights on way faster than google does. I wish Amazon would add "Hey" to the wake word because any of those four words can be randomly talked about and she would turn on when I don't want her to. I often wonder about people with family members named Alex. That must be nuts. When I talk to Chris we say "echo" so as not to wake up Alexa and end up yelling Cancel to her. Or "The Echo". I love the idea of saying "Computer" like it's the Enterprise but then I can't talk about our computers. Same problem.
    Up is my fave Pixar movie of all time.

    I know this video is old but I was wanting to know could you use the kids device as a regular device without any restrictions? I found the kids device way cheaper than the regular so that’s why I wanted to know.

    • @TechWithBrett

      From what I understand yes. You just turn off FreeTime and it acts like a normal Echo Dot.

    If it’s the same as Echo Gen 2, why not buy the ED2 for $25 (as of 12/28/18 on Amazon) and enable kid mode and save the difference in cost? Am I missing something?

    • @TechWithBrett
      @TechWithBrett  Před 5 lety

      It comes with a year or subscription to some of Amazon's kid content and services as well as extra device protection. But yes you can just use an Echo Dot 2 and pay for the subscription if you want to use it.

    Brett, what is the difference between the echo dot and the echo dot kids edition? The echo dot is already kid friendly as it is. I feel she’s G rated and family friendly. Is the only difference that you can have parental controls and make the dot more educational?

    Some of these features work on the regular dot without freetime except the message one. Wich makes me a little sad as in Canada they don't have freetime yet or a kids version. Do you know of anyway to get the echo dot 2nd gen to take messages like this?

    • @TechWithBrett
      @TechWithBrett  Před 6 lety

      Do you have any messaging option now? Most likely you would need to set up the Echo with different account and a specific phone number.

    I am a little confused I have been told that free time can only be used on one device by multiple Amazon reps. I have a kindle fire and an Echo and I am thinking of getting the free time subscription. Since I have one kid I can only use one or the other for free time unless I pay the rate of 6.99 a month so she can listen music on her dot and play games on her fire at the same time under free time. It makes no sense that I would have to unlink my free time from one device to link it to the other device to use it. I should be able to play it on any device.
