I'm cooking for just Mommy & me this year. While I wait for the roast to cook, I set up some new tech. On the doctor's advice I got an Echo Dot because Mom keeps taking off the emergency button from her neck and leaving it around the house, usually where she is not. I've been using the reminder & timer function today for cooking. Every time Alexa talks, Mom asks is that your Auntie? (Auntie has already called.) If Mom actually needed help, I don't think she would have the presence of mind to pick up the phone, let alone ask for help from Alexa. But it is just the first day...
