Alexa says “Someone is at the doorbell”. While technically correct it is annoyingly awkward. How can I modify what Alexa says? Someone is at the front door would be sufficient. I name my doorbell Front Door thinking that would make her say front door. Name same in Alexa app and in device settings page for the doorbell. 

 

Bought this and camera because amazon never rings bell — just dumps pkgs. UPS and USPS do ring but I cannot generally hear old builder model doorbell chime unless I’m standing under it.

Hi LCSG49,

 

You could toggle off "Doorbell Press" and create a new routine and modify what Alexa says. You can read here on how to create a routine: How do I create an Amazon Alexa Routine for my Arlo Audio Doorbell?
