Amazon and Disney have just announced a new voice assistant called “Hey, Disney!” For home Echo and Echo devices at Walt Disney World Resort hotel rooms.
This voice assistant is built on Amazon’s Alexa technology and can perform the same things Amazon’s Alexa does. You can also use it to interact with characters from Disney, Marvel, Star Wars, Pixar, and more. It will also tell you jokes set in the Disney world.
Just say “Hey, Disney” followed by a voice command to set alarms, set timers, check weathers, and more.
In Disney’s hotel rooms, this vice assistant will be used to answer questions, fulfill some service requests, and more. Disney World or Disneyland visitors can also ask park-specific questions like “Hey Disney, what time does the park open?” or “Hey Disney, where can I get Italian food?”
Amazon’s Hey Disney will also be available t other Alexa users as a custom voice and will be launched in 2022. You will need to pay for using it on your own Echo device. People staying at Disney parks can access it from Echo devices at their rooms.
Amazon has also unveiled OtterBox’s new Mickey accessory for the Echo Show 5. It is now available for preorder at $24.99.
