How do I set up Alexa on the Redmi Watch 5 Active


To set up Alexa on the Redmi Watch 5 Active, follow these steps:

2. Open the Mi Fitness App: Once connected, open the Mi Fitness app on your smartphone. This app is essential for managing and configuring your watch.

3. Navigate to Device Settings: Within the Mi Fitness app, go to the "Device" section. This is where you will find options related to your watch.

4. Find Amazon Alexa: Scroll down in the "Device" section until you see "Amazon Alexa." Click on this option to proceed with setting up Alexa.

5. Log In with Amazon Credentials: You will be prompted to log in with your Amazon account credentials. Enter your Amazon login details to authenticate and authorize the connection.

6. Allow Voice Permissions: After logging in, you may be asked to allow voice permissions for Alexa. Grant these permissions to enable voice commands.

8. Using Alexa: To use Alexa, you can press and hold the button on your watch that is set to activate Alexa (usually the side button). You can then give voice commands to ask questions, set timers, or control smart home devices connected to your Alexa account.

**Troubleshooting Tip: If you encounter issues with Alexa not being available in your region, consider changing your region in the Mi Fitness app to a supported area like the United Kingdom, as some features may not be available globally[3][7].

By following these steps, you should be able to successfully set up and use Alexa on your Redmi Watch 5 Active.
