Question

setting up Location (postcode etc.) on Alexa app

Every time I go into settings in Alexa app and do the drop downs for location, address and postcode etc.. it lets me do it, I press save and then it reverts back to being empty as If I didn't put them in. Its a small issue but driving me mad! I ask Alexa say for the weather and she tells me to put in this info on the app, but it just wont save the details. ???

    Amazon look as though they have fixed this now, can you test again?

    This product is so new that Amazon doesn't even know who I should talk to for help with the things that aren't working. After 17 minutes on hold, he still doesn't know.

    Under devices, the Sonos One speaker is listed twice. Once as the name I gave the speaker, another time as "Sonos One Device." I had been trying to change the settings for the device with the speaker name and didn't notice there was another entry.
