Amazon Echo Show: This is how you delete photos


As a smart display, Amazon’s Echo Show is ideal for displaying images and photos. And all devices in the series do this almost permanently – whether as a home page background or in picture frame mode without any other displays.

If images appear on the screen of your Echo Show that have no business being there, you will definitely want to delete them. You can find all images from the Echo Show, including selfies taken with the front camera, in one place: Amazon Photos. This is how you access the photo collection on Amazon.

If a certain background image in the Echo Show’s rotation bothers you, you don’t even have to go to the computer – because the Alexa app on your smartphone also allows you to remove images.
