Alexa comes to Windows 10

Amazon just launched its Alexa app on Windows 10 and it’s now available on the Microsoft Store for all Windows 10 machines. It’s important to note, though, that only compatible devices will support Alexa wake word functionality. If your device doesn’t support this, you can just hit the button within the app to speak to Alexa or use a keyboard shortcut.

Just like other Alexa apps, this will let you do things like control music playback as well as your smart home devices. But it doesn’t have PC-specific controls just yet, these are said to be coming in “early 2019.” Video, calls, Pandora, and Spotify aren’t supported within the app just yet either.
