Do you remember a new visual assistant by Amazon called Echo Show? It has went on sale for the first time last week 🚚 According to the statistics, one of the most popular categories in the first sales week was food. Yea. Calorie counter Track by Nutritionix has added visuals telling you how many calories are in a food; OpenTable books restaurants; and you can now place Starbucks orders with the new visual interface. The reason of this popularity is simple - food sucks without visuals. YouTube on Echo Show can also help you make a meal. Just say “Alexa, show me YouTube videos of how to cook macaroni and cheese” and up pops a series of choices. I’m sure that there will a plenty of other cooking and DIY apps with visual elements joining Alexa Store in the next couple of months. Seems like Amazon have created a brand new platform with a huge potential. Again. Don’t miss your opportunity and start building skills for this super sexy platform😉 https://venturebeat.com/2017/07/04/how-amazons-echo-show-can-change-how-you-cook-dinner/ Developer docs are available here: https://developer.amazon.com/public/solutions/alexa/alexa-skills-kit/docs/build-skills-for-echo-show
