### 1/5 — Ads

*2026-09-09*

Will you even let me click every single single click? I tried to do add pop-up add pop-up every single time if you want. Add free to without distractions just go get the regular Alexa app.(newsflash I can’t. I don’t even want to rate it one star it was really just zero stars, but that’s all I can do.

**Developer response:** We’re sorry the repeated ad pop-ups made the app so frustrating to use. You should be able to explore commands without constant interruptions. Thank you for being direct about your experience—your feedback makes it clear that the ad frequency needs improvement.

### 1/5 — What do I actually have?

*2026-08-14, version 1.0.3*

I have an echo device. It looks like a very small TV set with a big back on it. I can’t fully identify what it is. I have. It’s echo it’s by Amazon and it is as I’ve described it. When I downloaded this app, it was supposed to be for all echo devices. So I don’t know if these instructions have a bearing on the device I have it looks like what I’m reading here. I can already have my device due. I don’t see anything different here.

### 1/5 — Didn’t work at all

*2026-08-08, version 1.0.3*

I tried a half dozen times to log in with Amazon using my browser, using both Chrome and Safari on my iPad.  I couldn’t get it to work but it dumped an endless amount of ads in my way.  It errored out, saying that the address was wrong when I signed in and tried going back to the app to continue.

### 1/5 — Ads and the purpose of this app???

*2026-07-02, version 1.0.3*

My grandma installed this unofficial app thinking it was an official Amazon app to set up her Alexa. She ended up getting a virus because an ad popped up saying she had viruses and clicked on it. Will be reporting this app.

### 1/5 — Useless
