It's That Time of Year

<p>Last week’s Alexa Live Conference introduced the largest amount of new features ever announced at one time.

Alexa for Apps lets users use their voice to open apps and complete tasks, Alexa Conversations helps developers build more conversational skills, and Quick Links allows users to navigate to a skill from an app, website, or online ad.
