<p>An incoming update (http://amzn.to/2mTMhO0) for the Amazon app for iOS (https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/amazon-app-shop-scan-compare-and-read-reviews/id297606951?mt=8&amp;at=11l3Qv) will add the company’s Alexa voice assistant that was previously limited to the users of its Echo speaker (http://amzn.to/2mTTSMB) and other Alexa-enabled hardware.</p>
<p>Building on the app’s ability to order using your voice, Alexa will act as your assistant while shopping the Amazon app, allowing you to search and reorder items, track your orders, and more. But it will also include most of the other functionality Alexa has to offer.</p>
