No,, this is a difference between actually using the app and commanding Alexa
to do something. You do have to tap and hold to actually ask Alexa to do
something on your Kindle Fire. But the Alexa app itself, which helps you to do
setup and work with various items related to your echo works like any normal
app on your Kindle. In this case, not always but often, when I tell Alexa to do
something, the app on the Kindle comes up and apparently is keeping a record of
that. I do understand that the apps do keep a record of things you say to
Alexa. But my question is: Is there a way to keep the app from announcing out
loud?

Wow! I never see that. I have one kindle, an HD eight. And it was my impression
that in order to get Alexa , you had to double tap and hold on the home button.
Not a physical button of course. And I've never had a come on when I didn't
want it.

Even if locked,, a kindle near Alexa always comes on and announces what I
have said when I talk to Alexa, most of the time anyway. Alexa has been
dismissed but it still happens. Is there a way to prevent this?
Thanks.
