The Amazon Echo is a hands-free speaker you control with your voice. Echo connects to the Alexa Voice Service to play music, provide information, news, sports scores, weather, and more—instantly. All you have to do is ask.
One of the coolest features of the Echo is the ability to use it as a walkie talkie. All you need to do is enable the walkie talkie feature in the Alexa app and then invite someone else to enable the walkie talkie feature on their Echo.
To start a walkie talkie conversation, simply say “Alexa, open walkie talkie.” You and the other person will then be able to communicate with each other just like you would with a walkie talkie.
You can also use the Echo as a intercom system. To do this, enable the intercom feature in the Alexa app and then invite someone else to enable the intercom feature on their Echo. To start a conversation, say “Alexa, open intercom.” You and the other person will then be able to communicate with each other just like you would with a intercom system.
The Echo is a great way to communicate with someone in another room without having to shout or walk over to them. Give it a try today!

Troubleshooting Tips for Walkie Talkie Feature on Alexa
The Alexa Walkie Talkie feature is a convenient way to keep in touch with family and friends without having to use your phone. However, there may be times when the Walkie Talkie feature isn’t working properly. If you’re having trouble using the Walkie Talkie feature on Alexa, here are some troubleshooting tips to help you get it working again.
First, make sure that you and the other person you’re trying to talk to are both using devices that have the Walkie Talkie feature enabled. You can check by opening the Alexa app and going to the Conversations tab. If the Walkie Talkie feature isn’t enabled for either person, you’ll see a message that says “This person does not have the Walkie Talkie feature enabled.”
If both people have the Walkie Talkie feature enabled, make sure that your devices are connected to the same Wi-Fi network. You can check by opening the Alexa app and going to the Settings tab. If the devices are not connected to the same network, you’ll see a message that says “This device is not connected to the same network as your other device.”
If both devices are connected to the same network, the next thing to check is the quality of your Wi-Fi connection. You can check the quality of your Wi-Fi connection by opening the Alexa app and going to the Settings tab. If the quality of your Wi-Fi connection is poor, you may want to try using a different Wi-Fi network.
If you’ve tried all of these troubleshooting tips and the Walkie Talkie feature is still not working, please contact Amazon Support.
