We want to accompany you with the best music and entertainment by offering you five Amazon Alexa apps to use with our Smart Speakers that will help you make quarantine much more bearable:
Set a countdown to wash your hands
We're used to washing our hands quickly, but the coronavirus has forced us to change our habits, take extra precautions, and have to wash our hands with soap much more often and for at least 20 seconds (that's what the experts tell us, and we must listen to them). To do this, we can set a timer with our voice on a Smart Speaker: "Alexa, set a timer for 20 seconds." We can also set multiple timers with different names. "Alexa, set a timer for 20 seconds to wash hands," followed by "Alexa, set a timer for 20 seconds to dry hands."
The Cookpad skill for Amazon Alexa allows you to easily access thousands of recipes. It also includes other interesting features, such as the ability to set a timer, allowing you to control cooking times. Once you select the recipe, Alexa guides you step-by-step through the entire process. And don't forget that while you wait for the recipe to be ready, you can enjoy your favorite music.
Get in shape virtually without stepping foot on the street or in the gym
One of the most popular apps on Amazon is "My Personal Trainer," which lets you do different workouts at home and get in shape using your voice assistant. Start with a basic program if you're new to sports, or choose an intermediate program if you're a regular exerciser. It also offers individual exercises to target specific muscle groups.
Use the voice assistant to meditate
If you need to meditate or relax to disconnect from so much information, Amazon Alexa offers different skills to enjoy narrated meditation guides and ambient sounds. Bamboo, for example, offers 15 minutes of relaxation as you embark on an experience that will allow you to find the spiritual peace you need: a great way to clear your mind and free yourself from the stress of everyday life. And if you need more, it can play multiple background sounds to help you fall asleep.
Spending time with family
Having fun alone or with the family we share time with is essential, and the Trivial Pursuit skill is one of the best ways to spend your free time during quarantine. The game has two difficulty levels: the normal version and the family version, with questions for both kids and adults. So go ahead and try it—you're sure to learn as well as enjoy it!
