Skills Reviews

I opened Skills for the first time to investigate and understand its function. Every single time I looked at a skill, closed it and tapped on a new one, a full screen pop up came up and I had to close it before I could research. Far too annoying. Don’t advertisers realize when we are bombarded with ads, we don’t read them? And I noticed all the 5 star apps have little one line comments leading me to believe they are not real reviews. They also seem to be on the same day in June...huh...So, this was the first time I opened an app and deleted it within 5 minutes.

My mom was recently diagnosed with dementia and is living with me. I have far too much to do and I’m trying to determine the best way to use Alexia to help myself and her. Skills is not the ticket!

Looked like it might be useful but after install all I get were pop ups that I couldn’t close every time I tried something.

By the third kill Skills and restart I’d had enough and deleted it.

Waste of time

Junk ad spammer

Ads right in your face seconds after you open it. Garbage app.

Every single time I opened a skill I first had to exit out of a full screen pop up for a local alerts app which about 1 in 5 times was impossible to close without either inadvertently linking to the website or clicking on another advertisement that popped up covering the “close” button. I also was encouraged to leave a 5 Star review every single time, which was what inspired me to bother with leaving this 1 Star review. My advice is to not allow your product to be rendered unusable by invasive advertising and then further assail your customers by constant demands for positive feedback.

Complete spam ad app

What a joke! Every navigation a full screen add pops up that you have to close to continue!

The pop up every time you changed screens does not work for me.

To the developers , hey dumb dumbs, I know ads are a part of free apps. However when your powered by google ads cover the navigation buttons of your app, it kinda renders it USLESS.
ZERO STARS

Why does everyone who gives Skills 5 stars speak horrible, almost incomprehensible English? Lol. I know Americans are getting dumber but come on...fake! And 99% of all the reviews just happened to come between June 20 and June 24? It’s over halfway into July now...fake! Lol. All those reviews just happen to be right after the first update in over half a year? Fake! The amazing popularity of this mega hit app that was updated right before all the reviews has died down like literally overnight and almost no one has reviewed it since? (No one giving it 5 stars at least!) FAAAAAAKKKEE!!!

I could tell after just 2 minutes of use that this product is more disruptive than helpful. Way to many pop ups! Deleted in less than 5 minutes!

App had 5 star potential but I guess the developer hit the lottery and declined to update after Feb. New Daily this app is lost in cyber space.
Who ever replaces the concept of Skills will be a home run......

I am new to Echo. Downloaded Skills to learn more of what she can do. There is supposed to be a'Daily' Skill to make things easy or fun or productive. Every time I open it to see the daily skill...I keep seeing the same one from days ago. It doesn't change. I have to uninstall Skills and reinstall to get a new app. I thought this was supposed to make things easier NOT HARDER.. disappointed.

It’s very latest for Alexa skill. Lots of categories for Alexa this app..I highly recommend to use Skills for Alexa this app!

I have good this app in using Skills

Top application for this app, I like it

Useful app! If you have an Alexa, Just a perfect way to learn using Skills. Thank you.

Super App. I am highly recommended Skills.

In order to get new “this app”, I have to delete app and reload. Annoying

Fortunately the developers have fixed this bug! Way to go!!

Enable Alexa this app directly from Skills , that's great
