Amazon packaged the Echo Dot along with the purchase of the floodlight cam, but I havent found how it works with the Echo Dot.Anyone know what can be done using the Echo Dot (essentially just a small Alexa device) with the Ring Floodlight Cam?I have no experience with using Alexa...always creeped me out.

    You can do some stuff. You can get notified of motion and or door bell ring. I think you can communicate with the people outside as well. You can also get other notifications from other cameras and such. The only issue I have with the Alexa notifications is that it does not follow the schedule you set for notifications on the Ring app. So it can get annoying. The echo shows to me are much better since I can see any cam I need to. Also a Fire TV device places a full screen view on my TV. Here is a link that should help you set it up and understand what it's capable of.
