Amazon’s latest update brings a big change to Fire TV. Alexa Plus on the TV is made to save you from your phone, giving you answers, updates, and shortcuts right on the screen. Instead of reaching for your mobile, Alexa can now handle searches, trivia, and even live sports info—all with just your voice.
Smarter Than Just A Voice Command
Alexa Plus isn’t just about pausing and playing anymore. Amazon has supercharged its assistant with context-aware features that make TV watching smoother.
You can ask Alexa about an actor’s background, where a show was filmed, or even jump straight into specific movie scenes. It’s like having IMDb and Google search built right into your Fire TV.
Sports, Scores, And Stats On Demand
No more juggling your phone while watching the game. Alexa Plus makes it easy to follow live sports across Prime Video, Sling TV, DirecTV, and Fubo. Ask about current scores, player stats, or even switch directly to a live match—all hands-free.
Works Beyond Prime Video
While its best features shine on Prime Video, Alexa Plus also supports other apps like Netflix and Max. Amazon hasn’t revealed how deep that integration goes yet, but the goal is clear: cut down the need to multitask with your phone.
Where You Can Try It
Alexa Plus will roll out on Amazon’s latest Fire TV hardware, including the 2- and 4-series, the QLED model, and the new Fire TV Stick 4K Select. It will also extend to the Fire TV Cube, Fire TV Stick 4K, and even select models from Panasonic and Hisense.
Why It Matters
We’ve all been there—pausing a show to Google an actor, or checking live scores on our phones. By bringing that info directly to the screen, Alexa Plus makes entertainment seamless.
Simply put, Alexa Plus on the TV is made to save you from your phone, turning Fire TV into a smarter, all-in-one hub for watching, searching, and discovering.
