What Does the Yellow Ring on My Alexa Device Mean?

When your Alexa device displays a yellow ring, it’s generally trying to notify you about a message or a pending notification. This could be an unread message from Alexa’s messaging service or an alert about an order you’ve placed on Amazon. Essentially, the yellow ring serves as a reminder to check your Alexa app or ask Alexa to tell you what’s going on.

Here are some common causes for seeing the yellow light:

  • Unread Messages: Alexa may have unread messages, either from contacts or announcements you’ve missed.
  • Pending Notifications: Alexa often uses the yellow ring to notify you about Amazon order updates or delivery statuses.
  • Missed Reminders: If you’ve set up reminders that went off while you were away, the yellow ring will alert you to check the missed reminders.

Understanding these potential triggers will help you respond appropriately to the yellow ring and keep your device’s notifications in order.
