- A: AnswerHi there! The Echo Show 8 3rd Generation should work just fine in Brazil, though you may need a different power adapter than the one that is included with the US version of the device. You'll still be limited to the normal services and features of an Alexa enabled device operating in Brazil though. Alexa definitely speaks Portuguese though, so no worries there. I hope that helps, have a great rest of your day!

- A: AnswerHello Pete, You want to know if you are able to print recipes from your Echo Show 8 (3rd Generation). The Amazon Echo Show 8 (3rd Gen) does not have built-in printing capabilities. However, you can work around this by: 1.Sending the Recipe to Another Device – You can use the “Send to Phone” feature or share the recipe via email or text to a device connected to a printer. 2.Using Alexa to Read the Recipe – If printing isn’t necessary, you can ask Alexa to show or read the steps while you cook. Hope these options work for you Pete, have an amazing day!

- A: AnswerHi FloridaBob, Thanks for reaching out. I apologize for the inconvenience you're experiencing with your new 8" Echo Show. Time discrepancies can be frustrating, Here are a few things to try. Double-check the time zone: Even though you've set it to EST NY, try resetting it: Say "Alexa, open settings" Go to "Device Options" > "Date & Time" Ensure "Automatic Time Zone" is enabled If it is, try turning it off and manually selecting "Eastern Time (US & Canada)" Sync the time: Say "Alexa, sync my device" This should force the device to update its time from Amazon's servers Restart your Echo Show: Unplug the device from power for about 30 seconds, then plug it back in Check your Amazon account settings: Go to the Alexa app on your smartphone Tap on "Devices" > "Echo & Alexa" > select your new Echo Show Check the device settings to ensure the correct time zone is set Update your Echo Show: Say "Alexa, check for software updates" If an update is available, install it I hope these steps get help. Have a great day!

Echo Show is phenomenal . Just do it!
I recently updated from the Echo Pop, to this Echo Show 8. It's a sleek looking 3rd generation touchscreen. I bought it for my disabled husband, who has dexterity issues when trying to dial via cell phone. Now he uses gross motor movements for the touchscreen or a voice command to not only call family but view them. The Echo smartly sits up by design to allow you to view it like a small television screen. Ive fallen in love with the device. Daily Im excited to ask Alexa to play music for enjoyment via amazon music, meanwhile the screen displays the lyrics in large print. The stereo sound is phenomenal. Visitors have been surprised to find the Echo is whats generating such quality sound. My husband now ask Alexa, "who's the artist?", instead of quizzing me. Lol. Im so satisfied with my purchase. It's so easy to set up and operate, that Im now going to buy one for my mom. It just requires your wifi address and password.
