Hi @Anonymous User 

 

None of the NOW branded Sticks or NOW branded streaming Boxes have Alexa integration as far has i know (might be wrong because i don't use Alexa or any voice recognition service).

 

I haven't really looked into it or read up on it, but the full blown Roku Players offer Alexa control in some capacity having a quick read of this linked Roku Help Guide article below.

Can connect by using Alexa App ,go into devices on App ,you will see echo devices you got on list, quite simple to follow, will ask about connecting to wifi..or if you need to change because different wifi servers which you have changed to, will help by instructions , to change via bluetooth from phone , connecting,  opening your wifi from phone. Then it will automatically register once you put in the network into the Alexa App ,you are using will ask password .then your all set up. 

Basically register you internet network into Alexa App

Yes, that’s how you set up an Alexa device, and I have several working. But can I control Now via one?

Set a Payment PIN on your account so that no-one but you can buy memberships on it. Check your bank accounts monthly for any other unexpected payments to Now. That way you can at least nip them in the bud, while you and Now figure out whose fault they are.
