How to get Alexa in Apple Watch
Voice in a Can is a third-party app which you can download from AppStore for your Apple Watch at just $2. This app brings the Alexa AI and some of its features onboard to your smartwatch. To use it, first you need to connect your amazon account to the app. Then, just tap on the icon in your watch and immediately you’ll be connected to the virtual assistant to use it for functions similar to Echo devices. The functions which work include read flash-briefing, control smart lights and coffee-machines etc. However, Skills such as reading audio-books from your amazon account and playing music won’t work.
