Overview

Amazon is rolling out a new Send to Alexa Plus feature for owners of the latest Kindle Scribe and Kindle Scribe Colorsoft devices, beginning February 12.

What Send to Alexa Plus Does

The feature lets you send your notes or documents to Amazon’s AI‑powered Alexa Plus assistant. Alexa Plus can then:

• Summarize the content
• Convert it into to‑do lists, calendar events, or reminders
• Help with brainstorming
• Offer project guidance

Testing Experience

The author spent roughly a day testing the feature, primarily to assist with caregiving tasks. Key observations include:

• The feature was mostly helpful, though it has some limitations.
• It works best when asked to digest information into something actionable.
• It accurately summarized both handwritten notes and PDF documents.
