Echo smart speakers have become very popular since their launch, especially because they have Alexa, a virtual voice assistant created by Amazon.
If you have an Echo device, and you use it frequently, you have surely noticed which sometimes reflects different colors.
These Alexa colors have a meaning, which serves to communicate a specific state. We will explain each of them below.
Yellow
The yellow color indicates that you have a notification, and to find out what it is, you just have to say a phrase similar to ‘Alexa, what notification do I have?’.
Blue
If the light ring is blue, it appears solid, with a small area in a cyan tone, it means that Alexa is listening to what you say.
Cyan
In the event that it is the cyan color that rotates on the blue, what it means is that your Echo is starting up.
Red
If you see the color red, what it means is that Alexa is not listening because the microphone has been turned off. To turn it on or off, press the on/off button accordingly.
Orange
On the one hand, orange is a way to indicate that the device is in configuration mode, on the other hand, what it means is that it is connecting to the internet.
Green
The flashing green light tells you that you are receiving a call on your mobile device, while a rotating green light lets you know the device in question is on an active call.
Purple
If you have activated do not disturb mode, a purple color appears briefly, but if you have not activated it, what the purple color says is that there are problems with the Wi-Fi.
White
To know what volume level your Echo is set to, you just have to see what position the white circle is in when raising or lowering it.
