A new Smart Clock accessory for the Amazon Echo Flex has just been released. Just like the Motion Sensor accessory and the Night Light accessory, the Smart Clock plugs into the USB port on the bottom of the Echo Flex. Once connected, it automatically displays the correct time. If you set a timer with Alexa, the display switches to show how much time is left on your timer and then switches back to a clock when the timer ends. An ambient light sensor automatically adjusts the brightness of the clock, or you can manually adjust the brightness by saying “Alexa, set clock brightness to [##] percent.” You can also turn off the clock by saying “Alexa, turn off the clock.” The Smart Clock accessory is available to preorder now for $14.99 and will be released in a few days on August 11. If you don’t have an Echo Flex, note that you can save $15 when you buy 2 and use promo code FLEX2PK.
That looks pretty useful!
There’s also a $10 discount code right now for a single Flex that makes a Flex $14.99, ECHOFLEX10.
I love my Flexes but I’ll stick with the nightlight for now.
