Here’s everything you need to know about using your Amazon Echo smart speaker or Amazon Echo Show smart display to make group calls
Group calling is a great way to stay in touch with a group of friends or family at the same time, and it’s certainly seen its popularity rise over the past year. With this in mind, Amazon has given its Echo smart speakers and Echo smart displays the ability to make group calls free of charge. You’ve been able to call other Amazon speakers as well as individual mobile numbers and landlines and other Amazon speakers since 2017, but expanding this to include group calling means you don’t have to resort to apps for your smartphone or tablet for virtual get-togethers. You can call up to seven people at any one time, on an audio call using an Amazon Echo or on a video call using an Amazon Echo Show. Group calling is available in the US, UK and Australia as well as Austria, Brazil, Canada, France, Germany, India, Ireland, Italy, Mexico, New Zealand and Spain.
