Ask Alexa to Tell You Why She Just Did Something

To understand why Alexa just did something, say "Why did you do that?"

Alexa provides a short explanation about her response to your recent voice requests, Bluetooth connections, routine triggers, and more.

Request an explanation by saying things like:

  • "What did you say?"
  • "What just happened?"
  • "Did you hear that?"
  • "What did you do?"
  • "What's up with that?"
