Yes, this is a very nice feature. I often ask Alexa what time it is in the middle of the night and if I whisper to her she whispers back. That way my hubby is not awakened. Very nice. Elena

Subject: [VICUG-L] A lady has a whisper mode, and oh is it great!!!!
Hi all,
Well folks, I was doing some money problems, and I was using A lady, and talking the money amounts, and she was calculating them for me, but some people in my hallway were nosy, and listening in, even with my door closed, because these doorways are nothing for sound to pass through!!
And I don't know about you all, but your money is your business, not anyone elses business.
So, I remember someone telling me about her and whisper mode.
So, I did a google search for
how to turn on whisper mode in Alexa
Here's how you do it, and you don't have to have her turn off whisper mode, because when you talk to her in a normal voice, she will talk to you normally, I just tried it.
Just say, Alexa, turn on whisper mode.
And she does it, and I leave it on, and don't have to turn whisper mode off, because I can still talk in my normal voice because she will talk to me normally as well!
So now, folks, if you want to do money problems, or talk to her about anything you don't want anyone to hear, in a nearby room, or a hallway, like happened to me, just use whisper mode, and leave it on!
And now, I don't need to buy that talking calculator I thought I would have to buy!
Harry, who now has his privacy back
