Alexa show - Meshare cameras being preempted
« on: May 08, 2020, 04:26:46 pm »
I have several security cameras with MeShare. I can enable on my Alexa Show, but they keep getting knocked off when "Reminders", or "Photos" show up. I would really have my cameras show when alarms (sensed by the camera) are activated.

What can I do?

Unfortunately you can't use an Echo Show as a camera monitor. After a short time, the Echo Show will revert to its rotating home screens. That is the clock, photos, reminders, etc. It's how Amazon designed it and there's no way for users to change that.
