Heres how to tame those pesky ads on your Amazon Echo Show
 

• Despite its value and versatility, an increasing number of ads on the Amazon Echo Show has made the device hard to use.
• However, changing a few simple settings on your Echo Show can stop the ads and improve your user experience.
• Were not sure how long these workarounds will remain effective, but its worth enabling them for now.

Amazons Echo Show is a versatile device that has all the capabilities of the Echo speaker and more. And the best part is that it offers pretty great value, especially if you purchase the device during sale days. Whats unfortunate, though, is that users are plagued with a seemingly endless number of ads on the Echo Shows home screen. Not only is this distracting, but it can also get in the way of the user experience.

The good news is that there are several workarounds to make the Echo Show less cluttered with ads. Redditor calculon68 found that ads can be disabled by turning off all options in*Settings > Home & Clock > Home Content. Youll then have to set the Night Mode to between 00:00 and 23:55 daily. Once these settings are applied, the home screen will switch to a clock display after a minute or so of inactivity, and the barrage of ads is effectively eliminated from your home screen. Were not sure how long this workaround will last; however, its a pretty sweet solution for now.
