The sticky notes Alexa are very practical elements that arrived with Echo Show 15. Capable of displaying widgets, the latest addition to the range benefits from a whole new customizable interface. Unfortunately, if it were possible to display these notes saying " Alexa, what are my grades on older generations, these were of little interest since they were not displayed on their own. But the whole point of a Post-it is precisely that our eyes rest on it without us having to ask. That is why Amazon updated our old devices to provide them with this functionality.
