Q. I have an Echo Show that I love using. I was at a friend's party and saw that her Echo Show had her own family photos as the background. At first I thought the photos came with the Show or were a new Alexa skill, but then I saw photos of my friend with her family and realized that her Show was a digital photo frame.

Set your Fire TV or Fire TV Stick screensaver From your Amazon Photos mobile app, tap the 'More' tab. Edit: Alexa for Your Day is a new 'feature' on Echo Shows. It is an ugly screen with suggestions of what to ask Alexa for. It shows up constantly, and cannot be disabled. I spent time getting my Show set up to look the way I wanted, and now Amazon has add this trash screen and will not let me get rid of it.

I didn't have a chance to ask my friend how she turned her Echo Show into a digital photo frame, but I want to do that too. I'm hoping The Wonder of Tech can do an article explaining how to do this so I and other readers can enjoy seeing our photos on our Echo Shows.

Can you help?

A. Excellent question! Yes, the Echo Show and Echo Spot can become digital picture frames, showing your digital photos as the background. Instead of choosing between the photos that come with the Echo Show and Spot, you can use your own photos as the background image, also known as wallpaper.

Which Photos Can Be Used as Background Images on the Echo Show and Spot

Amazon's Echo Show and Spot let you choose one or multiple photos as a background image. You can use a favorite photo as the wallpaper so you see it every time you look at the screen.

You can also have all of your digital photos shown by the Show or Spot in a slide show so you're surprised by which photos are shown.

Or, you can choose to select photos from different categories, such as sunset, beach, mountains, locations, or recent photos. Echo will suggest categories based on what you have pictures of in your digital photo library. For example, if you have a lot of sunset photos, you can have your Echo Show or Spot display a slide show of only sunset photos.

You can also use photos from other family members, if you've set up a Family Photo Vault.

You can also create an album of Echo Photos that you use as the wallpaper for your Show or Spot. A slide show will display the photos from that album as your wallpaper. With an album you can choose exactly which photos are displayed and which aren't.

How to Get Your Photos to Display on to Your Echo Show and Spot

There are two ways to use photos as a background on your Echo Show or Spot. You can either set this up using the Alexa app on your phone or by going to Settings on your Show or Spot.

Scroll down to Home & Clock Background, then tap CHOOSE A PHOTO.

The photos in your phone's library will show. You can choose a single photo that will be shown as a background for your Echo Show or Spot by tapping on the photo you want to use.
