How to use Alexa on HTC U11, no hands required

While HTC U11 owners have known Amazon's AI assistant was on its way ever since the phone launched back in May, they can now finally install Amazon's AI assistant on their phones. And it's already learned a big new trick for its second Android phone: voice recognition. To get Alexa on the HTC U11, you'll need to update your system to the latest version (1.13.651.6) and download the app from the Play Store. It's a little tricky to find, but you can either follow this link or search for "HTC Alexa"--it should be the third or fourth result. Then, launch the app, sign into your Amazon account, enable the microphone, recording, and location services, and Alexa will be ready to go. The impact on AI: Amazon is making a major push to put Alexa within earshot wherever we are.
