Amazon Discontinues Echo Show 8 Photos Edition’s Key Feature
Amazon Stops Subscription for Echo Show 8 Photos Edition
Last year, Amazon unveiled the Echo Show 8 Photos Edition, a device designed to present users' favorite pictures through the PhotosPlus subscription service. However, Amazon has now decided to discontinue this subscription, rendering the feature virtually obsolete. The service, critical for keeping photos as the primary display content, has become unofficially canceled, affecting owners who paid a premium for the device.
Subscription Details and User Impact
- The PhotosPlus subscription was crucial for enabling the photo slideshow on the device.
- It allowed photos to be shown indefinitely, in contrast to standard displays that revert to ads.
- Customers will still retain access to 25GB of photo storage through the service.
Amazon has yet to provide additional details regarding this abrupt decision, leaving many questions unanswered. As of September 23rd, the subscription will no longer be available, and users are left questioning the value of their purchase.
