summary

Study deploys 10 diverse families with Echo Dots for one month and captures 14.5 hours of audio, finding families narrow the number of features they use steadily over four weeks. Initial setup via an app surprises many and discovery happens through trial and error and asking the device, not manufacturer emails; two families never learn Spotify works with Echo. Recommends just‑in‑time explanations and that the device honor "no" when offering upgrades.
