View the Live Feed

Say the wake phrase, then "Show [camera name]" to see the live feed.

For instance, if your Ring doorbell is linked to Alexa, you could ask her to "show me the front door." In response, Alexa says, "OK, getting the front door camera." Thanks to the camera feed demonstrating on your Echo Show, you can see and hear what's going on.

Say, "Alexa, hide [camera name]" or "Alexa, stop the [camera name] camera" to cease seeing the footage.

Recent Events Captured

Use your Echo Show to view the most recent recorded incident on your camera if you set a camera-recap skill on any compatible smart home camera.

Speak to Alexa and request the recorded summary by saying, "Alexa, display the latest event on the [camera name] camera." Say, "Alexa, display the most recent incident at the back door," for instance if you are using a Cloud Cam at your back door and have heard a noise. On your Echo Show, the most recent recording is displayed.

Restrictions on the Echo Show Camera Feed

The amount of time that your Echo Show displays video depends on the type of camera you have and its settings. The feed automatically times out if you exceed your camera's uploading restrictions. Ask Alexa to show you the camera once more to reopen it.
