0:00 / 0:41

Amazon Echo Show owners say ads are increasingly crowding their smart displays’ home screens, with some considering ditching or returning devices. Reports on Reddit and from The Verge describe promotional cards — including full-screen pushes for the subscription Alexa+ service, still in Early Access — appearing even over personal photo slideshows. Users can’t disable them. Amazon declined to say if ad loads rose, but said advertising is a small part of the experience and helps discovery, adding customers can swipe or give feedback. The company is expanding ad placements and says it will evolve them based on responses.
