Alexa is a voice assistant that can be used to control many devices in your home. You can use her to play music, set alarms, control lights and more. But there are a few things you can do to make her more user-friendly and easier to use. Here are some tips:
- Make sure Alexa is enabled on your device. This will allow her to communicate with your devices and respond to questions.
- Set up a default language for Alexa. This will help her understand the commands you give her in different languages.
- Use the voice commands wisely. Don’t give too many commands at once or she may become overwhelmed and not be able to do what you want her to do.
- Be patient with Alexa when learning new commands. She may take a little time to learn what you want her to do, but don’t be discouraged if she doesn’t immediately respond when you ask for something specific. Just keep asking until she does and then continue using the same command until she responds correctly again!

How to Change Alexa’s Voice to a Celebrity’s
Alexa’s voice isn’t limited to American English, U.K. English, or other regional accents. Now, using the Skills feature, users can add popular celebrity voices like that of Samuel L. Jackson, Deadpool, Pikachu, and Gordon Ramsey. Note that each celebrity comes with a predetermined list of answers and does not offer Alexa’s full range of capabilities. Do not expect them to provide exact, up-to-the-minute weather updates where specific cities, temperatures, and forecasts are mentioned.
You can also tap the “More” icon, scroll down to “Skills and Games,” type the name of the celebrity into the search box, and tap “Enable to Use.”
From there, you can summon Samuel L. Jackson by using the wake phrase “Hey, Samuel.”
Here are some examples of phrases that you could say to Alexa while using the “Hey, Samuel” wake phrase to produce one of his trademark, witty responses.
“Alexa, ask Samuel what his favorite movie line is.” “Alexa, ask Samuel what his favorite drink is.” “Hey Samuel, are you mad?” “Hey Samuel, play some music.” “Hey Samuel, what can you do?” “Hey Samuel, what’s in your wallet?”
How Do I Make Alexa’s Voice Slower or Faster?
To make Alexa speak slower or faster, say “Alexa, talk slower” and “Alexa, talk faster.” To make her go back to speaking at her original speed, say “Alexa, go back to your default speed.”
