How to delete Alexa recordings
The Amazon Echo and Echo Dot
You can now request that recordings of your voice used by Amazon's Alexa be automatically deleted.
Amazon says it saves Alexa commands to improve service, but the practice has raised concerns with privacy experts.
Previously users had to go into Alexa's settings and delete recordings manually. Now, users can ask Amazon to delete recording after three months or 18 months automatically.
Users can change this in their settings.
