My girlfriend gave me an Alexa assistant as a gift with all good will, since she knows I like technology. I know in terms of privacy it is garbage, however I wonder if there is a safe way to use some functions of this device, perhaps without internet. Some way to hack it or something, do you guys know something about this?
usually the alexa things do not have Bluetooth and can’t play audio from another device
What are you talking about? All Alexa Speakers I own or have encountered support bluetooth playback from other devices just fine, and at least the older ones also have a 3.5mm jack.
sorry maybe i confused echo dot devices with alexa speakers?
i only ever encountered echo dots and they can’t play over Bluetooth
Echo dots can also play over Bluetooth.
