Pair an Alexa Voice Remote with Your Compatible Echo Devices with a Screen

You can control the Fire TV experience on your compatible Echo device with a screen with an Alexa Voice Remote.

Note: Settings menu items for the Echo Hub and Echo Show 5 (all generations) may vary, and those devices will receive a software update soon.

These remotes are compatible with Echo devices with a screen:

  • Alexa Voice Remote (3rd Generation)
  • Alexa Voice Remote Pro

To pair your first remote, say "Go to Settings," and then select Get Started With Fire TV Remote. Follow on-screen instructions to pair.

If you already have a remote paired with your device, use the following instructions to pair another one:

  1. Say, "Go to Settings," or swipe down from the top of the Echo Show screen and select Settings .
  2. Select Fire TV Settings.
  3. Select Fire TV .
  4. Select Fire TV Remotes.
  5. On the Alexa Voice Remote, press and hold the Home button for 10 seconds. The Echo Show tells you when it discovers the remote.
  6. Complete pairing by selecting Connect on your device's screen.

We recommend a remote as the best way to use Fire TV on the Echo device with a screen. The remote controls only Fire TV actions and features on the device, and can't control Alexa widgets or other skills or services.

Note: One remote pairs with only one Echo Show or one Fire TV device at a time. However, you can pair more than one remote to your Echo Show.
