The convenience and affordability of Smart Speakers from Amazon, Apple, Google, Samsung, and others is resulting in rapid consumer uptake and creating opportunities for B2C businesses.

The success of App Stores paves the way for a similar demand for extensions to Smart Speaker functionality as vendors allow third-party extensions, for example, Skills for Amazon’s Echo products. Initially new functionality will be driven by user’s desire to replicate the convenience of using their favourite mobile phone apps, although a whole new class of potentially market disrupting Smart Speaker apps is likely to come into existence in the near future.

In response to customer feedback we have added Smart Speakers to the portfolio of devices and platforms supported by the Exploding Phone software development team. For further information see the Exploding Phone Web Site or contact us to discuss your requirements.
