Alexa Guard now rolling out in the US: Echo alerts you when it hears sounds of smoke alarms and breaking glass<div class="feat-image">
</div>
<p>Amazon is rolling out a new feature for its
Echo smart speaker devices called Alexa Guard. Alexa Guard turns your Echo into a mini-home security device. It will listen out for noises like smoke alarms going off or smashed glass, and send alerts to your phone including audio clips and quick access to a video feed (if your Echo has a camera).</p>
<p>Following a beta test last year, the feature will soon be available to all Echo owners in the United States. You can start using it by enabling Guard in the Alexa app.</p>
