Speaking of making phone calls, we found this great Alexa skill that will keep you from misplacing your phone! Chris demonstrates setting it up and using it, and the best news is, it doesn’t just work with cell phones!
For those of you who are new braille readers, or who wish to refresh your braille skills, we give the Braille Challenge skill a spin.
Finally in our quick Alexa skill tour, we show you how to experience some rest and relaxation with the amazing sleep and Relaxation Sounds skill. With all these great sounds to choose from, your old sleep machine may be relegated to your next yard sale.
