Here’s how Alexa is helping families during new school year

The “back-to-school” season has officially begun across the country, and customers can use Alexa skills to organize their day-to-day activities, access information quickly, and easily manage their schedules with just a voice command to help families prepare for the new academic year.

With smart home voice AI technologies such as Alexa, families can set their own shopping lists for school supplies, set a number of reminders for various activities, and make their day-to-day routines and activities during and after school easier and simpler.

Let Alexa Organise Your Day

Parents can prepare for the holiday season by making a shopping list on the Alexa App and adding reminders so they never forget to buy anything.

Parents in the UAE can ask Alexa to set reminders for specific activities such as purchasing school uniforms, stationery, school bags, and any other necessary requirements.

Parents can use smart voice AI technologies like Alexa to create routines that will help them adjust to a simpler lifestyle more quickly.

These routines include setting up reminders and alarms to wake up and sleep on time, as well as reminders for lunch, dinner, and prayer times.

During the new academic year, Alexa can set additional routines such as school pick-up/drop-off, to school or extra-curricular activities, doctor appointments, and other entertainment activities. Users can customize their morning alarm music by selecting from a variety of options.
