Anker’s car charger is Alexa-enabled and on sale for $33 off at Amazon
Alexa and Google Assistant have made your home life more convenient by enabling voice control of smart home devices, but your car has basically been left out of the equation. Sure, some cars have smart technology built in and there are even some pretty advanced that give you hands-free use. But how dope would it be to have those kinds of controls plus the ability to turn on smart home devices from your car?
The Roav Viva car charger from Anker is Alexa-enabled, giving you voice control in your car to get directions, hear news, shop online, play music, make calls, and more. Right now the device is $33 off at Amazon, dropping the price down to $41.99.
Plug the Viva into your car’s outlet or cigarette lighter to power it. The device features two USB ports for charging and it connects to your phone via Bluetooth for voice activation and music streaming. The Viva also comes with a magnetic mount to secure your phone while you drive.
As you’re driving you can ask Alexa to get directions to the nearest gas station, make phone calls, turn on the lights at home, and more. The Viva has two integrated microphones for accurate voice identification, and they can be disabled if you choose.
The Roav Viva from Anker is listed for $74.99, but you can grab it on sale for $41.99 at Amazon.
