Drop In is a feature on Alexa-enabled devices that allows you to connect instantly to supported devices or Alexa contacts. When you receive a Drop In, the light indicator on your Echo pulses green and you connect to your contact automatically. You can use Drop In to:

• Have a two-way conversation by connecting to one of your Alexa-enabled devices ("drop in on Kitchen").
• Connect to a specific device group ("drop in on living room"). Note: Only one Alexa-enabled device from the device group connects.
• Have a group conversation with all supported Alexa-enabled devices under your Amazon household, which are not set to do not disturb. To start a group conversation, ask Alexa to "Drop In everywhere". Note: All supported Alexa-enabled devices under your Amazon household account will connect regardless of their physical location.
• Drop In on a contact who granted you Drop In permissions.
• Receive Drop In from a contact whom you granted Drop In permissions.

To use Drop In, you can either refer to the device by its name or, even better, if youve created "rooms" in the Alexa app, you can just say, "Alexa, Drop in on the living room". You can also use the Alexa mobile app to drop in on your Echo devices. It comes in handy when you are outside your home and want to connect to someone in your household. To use Drop In via the Alexa app, you can either launch the Alexa app and tap the Alexa icon to launch the voice assistant or choose the Communicate tab and tap the Drop In icon.
