Echo Show Video Commands for Live Feeds
View Live Feed
To view the live feed, say the wake word, followed by “Show [camera name].” For example, if you have a Ring doorbell connected to Alexa, you say, “Alexa, show me the front door.” Alexa responds, “OK, getting the front door camera.” The camera feed appears on your Echo Show, so you can view and hear what’s happening. Stop watching the feed by saying, “Alexa, hide [camera name],” or “Alexa, stop the [camera name] camera.”
Recent Recorded Events
If you enabled a camera-recap skill on your compatible smart home camera, use your Echo Show to view the most recent recorded event on your camera. To view the recorded recap, say, “Alexa, show the latest event from the [camera name] camera.” For example, if you have a Cloud Cam at your back door and you heard a noise from that area, say, “Alexa, show the latest event from the back door.” The most recent recording appears on your Echo Show.
Echo Show Camera Feed Limitations
Your camera model and its settings determine the length and time your Echo Show displays video. When you exceed your camera’s streaming limits, the feed automatically times out. Reopen it by asking Alexa to show you the camera again.
