Turn handwritten Kindle Scribe notes into to-dos and events
Alexa+ summarizes notes sent from a Kindle Scribe and converts them into to-do lists, calendar events and reminders; a feature description.

- What they did
- This is a feature description, not a user's account. On a Kindle Scribe or Scribe Colorsoft, you use Send to Alexa to share a notebook or document with Alexa+. Amazon says Alexa can then summarize the notes, help brainstorm, guide projects, and turn them into to-do lists, calendar events and reminders. The notes also become available on Alexa.com, the Alexa app, Echo devices and Fire TV.
- How it went
- The article reports no results or testing. It says the feature was rolling out over the following days on the new Kindle Scribe and Scribe Colorsoft. The writer only says it could save time.
- Worth knowing
- It requires an Alexa+ subscription and a new Kindle Scribe or Scribe Colorsoft, and the source gives no accuracy details for reading handwriting.
