Must be ordered through Alexa. This device has many of Alexa’S capabilities (but not all, it can’t play all music services) and is a two-way video intercom.
Works pretty good. I have one for my elderly mom who lives 2,500 miles away and she is not computer literate (so skype and facetime and the like are not good options). This is basically a 1 touch video call.
Not sure if the above deal is still active, but…

There are a couple of other community members who have it and like it. No night vision is a frequent complaint, though. It may just depend on the exact specifics of how each family uses it.
I had one, and it always disconnected from Alexa. The company knew about the problem, and told me a update will be coming. I returned it after a month when the update never showed. I hope that problem has been resolved.
I suppose if you had a webcam that also reports the temperature and humidity in my house and has alexa functionality and that family members can use to initiate a two-way video call to my phone yes.
