Wait until glitches are fixed
UPDATE: I have had it for over 3 months Home Screen still isn't fixed screen goes black after showing a few of your photos. DO NOT BUY THIS ONE IF YOU WANT A SHOW BUY THE PREVIOUS VERSION WHERE THE HOME SCREEN WORKS! I have communicated for 3 months with support and I have given up it being fixed ever! Very disappointed from a user that has 2 older versions of show, several echo dots and other echo's which are great. Makes me afraid to buy any new Amazon products since this one has definitely disappointed! I have had the other Alexa Show's so I am familiar with the settings etc. But in the new Show the option of having your photos going to the screen continually gets interrupted by an ANNOYING Amazon screen that says at the top "Alexa for your day" it seems there is no way to shut this off and no one would want to continually see this. Also after showing home screen pictures for a little while the screen goes black and stays that way until you ask Alexa something. My other Amazon shows (I have two) work great with these features. Why the software functioning was changed in this unit is bizarre. They need to go back to the programming of the home screen that they successfully used in the previous show models! Also the movement of the unit is continually confused by the tv being on in the room making that feature almost useless. Also became confused when our dog barked. Surely the unit needs to refined and a human does not sound like a dog. The setting where it should only move when video calling and drop in doesn't work always moves when asking even temperature or any other simple request. Also it is supposed to go back to a home position and it never does. Have not seen any improvement in software problems. Wait until these annoying things are fixed! Great idea that needs lots of programming work get busy fixing these issues and I will edit my review!
