Amazon Alexa introduces group video calls for up to 7 people

The American company announced a new feature that could help users feel closer to their friends and family

Amazon announced group calls and video calls with Alexa, which allow up to seven people to connect on devices compatible with the company’s digital assistant.

The new group calling feature can help users feel close to friends and family “no matter how far away they are, particularly at this time,” Amazon said in a statement.

This is a feature that extends the calls and video calls already available with Alexa, but now supports up to seven participants.

To use the new feature, users must create a group and give it a name through the wizard app.

Once created, group calls can be activated through a voice command and can be made from a device which integrates Alexa, such as the Echo, Echo Dot, Echo Show or Fire TV Cube.
