You can now ask Alexa to add or review events on your Outlook calendar

Outlook users with an Amazon Echo can now make the online retailer’s assistant go to work for them. Amazon quietly updated Alexa to support Outlook calendars, letting you ask the virtual assistant to add and review events on your Outlook.com calendar.

Alexa previously supported only Google Calendar integration, but now an Outlook option appears in the Alexa mobile app. You can sync your Outlook account within the Alexa app and then the virtual assistant will be able to tell you events happening that day if you ask “what’s on my calendar?” You can also use the command “add an event to my calendar” to create a new scheduled meeting.

Currently, only Google and Outlook calendars are supported; Apple calendar users are still in the dark. You won’t have to update any Alexa-enabled devices to use this new feature—just connect your Outlook account with the Alexa app and your information will be available via the virtual assistant.
