Can Alexa Call 000?

Published in Technology 1 min read

No, Alexa cannot directly call 000.

Alexa is designed to make calls to regular phone numbers. Emergency numbers like 000 (in Australia) are not supported for direct calling through Alexa.

However, you can still use Alexa to contact emergency services:

  • Use the "Alexa, call 000" command. Alexa will recognize this command and provide you with instructions on how to connect with emergency services. This might involve transferring you to a human operator who can then connect you to 000.
  • Use the "Alexa, call 911" command. Alexa will recognize this command and connect you to emergency services in the United States. You can also use this command to call emergency services in other countries, but the specific number may vary.

Remember, it's always important to know how to contact emergency services directly. Using Alexa as a bridge can be helpful in some situations, but it's not a replacement for knowing how to call emergency services directly.
