Dot Echo Dot 5. Gen with clock and Alexa
-
Hi community!
I have a small but beatiful smart-home installation, ioBroker is doing a fantastic job! I would like to add a clock radio and that's why I stumbeled across a Echo Dot 5. Gen. (https://www.amazon.com/Clock-Cloud-Philips-White-Smart/dp/B0BDQ3DP2J)
But I do NOT want to use Alexa. Is it possible to use this device without any connection to the internet? Especially no data transmission from the microphone. Of course, Internet makes a lot of sense, so I would like to play web-radios as well as music from my personal NAS.
I did a little bit of research, before I buy a Dot, but I am not really confident, that the device will do what I would like. But I have a "simple" question left:
Is it possible to use the Echo Dot 5.Gen. w/o connection to Alexa?
Many thanks for your answers!
