Hi. I’ve just acquired and Echodot and added 44 items to my shopping list. It is supposed to sort the list into categories but it doesn’t. I’ve logged out and back in again, and I’ve deleted and reinstalled the Alexa app but still the list remains in the order it was entered. Can anyone help please?

I am about to replace the ring cameras with another brand.   Lately, I have been losing, on the average, one camera a month to "this device is offline" errors.   Once it gets the error, it will not connect again, no matter what I do.   Call customer service, they just want to sell me a new one at a discount.    If I did not know better, I would think ring was sending updates to break them.   I like ring because of the integration with alexa and I really hate replacing all the cameras and the alarm system but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do.     

the new release is supposed to have better sound, better choice of colors, no video just animation, no camera.   Maybe it won't have the flicker issues.    Priced at 80 bucks, though it is already on sale for prime members.

anyone interested ;-)

I have one of the original Spot units... I've never had ANY problem with it. No flicker or anything else. (Well... none that weren't my fault in set up or other)... Still works great today.

Astro was an overprice Echo Show on wheels from the start. And it still is.

Disabling it completely seems rather harsh. I guess there were so few business customers that Amazon doesn't even care about being sued for a couple thousand dollars.

Amazon retires its Astro for Business security robot after only 7 months.  Over 2k down the drain by those businesses that purchased it.    But amazon will be refunding 300 bucks plus unused subscription fees.  What a ripoff!   Wonder when the home version will be discontinued.
