I am technologically dumb. I was born before the middle of the last century. I used typewriters, ball point pens (those were miracles too) and normal black phones.
The letters in the typewriter were black with a white background. It took me ages to accept these white letters.
Now, after I fell, a fellow lotter (probably younger) told me to buy an Alexa. I did.
But I don´t know how to install it even though I don´t want it to sing.
I will see now how it can be done. My brother gave up too. But he bought it for me and I paid it including the shipping.
I´ll check it now.

I think it will help to get help if I fall again. I don´t want it for other purposes.

@LadyDuck I hope I will not fall again. But it is better to be safe than sorry.

@marguicha We are going to buy the SOS button, you can wear it as a wrist watch or as a necklace, it is enough to press the button if you have problems and you hear the voice of someone who asks what do you need, which kind of emergency and so on. It is called "SmartLife Care" here

Download the app for it and then follow the instructions it gives you. Hope you can get it figured out

I wish I could help; but I know nothing about Alexa. Maybe some MyLotters that have one can help you.

It's something you can connect to your Amazon account, and while I'm a tech nerd, I'd need a lot more details to help you trouble shoot. Have you figured out how to power it on and charge it? Those are the first two things you should try. When you power on any device for the first time, especially a voice-powered assistant, it'll ask you to select your desired language. Quite often, once you have it on, it'll walk you through the set-up process. Or you can search "how to set up Alexa" on Amazon's website. It'll direct you on how to get started.

I´ll check it. I got very nervous while my brother was yelling.

I will try. My brother installed Alexa´s app in my notebook but he could not do it in my smartphone.
