Campania among the first regions in Italy for number of interactions with Alexa: over 317 million interactions generated.
Over 317 million interactions, 49 million voice interactions for the Smart Home, 120 million interactions with music: here are the data related to the expansion of Alexa in 2022 in Campania.
The Alexa phenomenon continues to grow and more and more Italians are using Amazon's voice assistant to simplify their daily lives, through their own voice.
In the period between January and June 2022 alone, over 317 million interactions were generated in Campania, with a growth rate of 36% compared to the same period last year. Campania is in fact among the first regions in Italy for the number of interactions with Alexa.
At the top of the ranking of provinces that interact most frequently with Alexa are the inhabitants of the province of Naples, followed by the provinces of Salerno and Caserta, while the province with the highest growth rate of interactions compared to the same period last year is Benevento, with 40% more.
But what are the most used and loved Alexa functions by Campania users? Let's find out together.
Smart Home: 49 million voice interactions and 23 million Smart Home actions performed via Routines.
Alexa integrates with thousands of smart home devices, allowing you to activate compatible cameras, lights, thermostats, and more.
These functions are among the most popular skills – or voice applications. With a 34% increase, users in Campania are increasingly using Alexa and devices from the Echo family to manage their home, asking for example: “Alexa, turn on the light in the living room” or “Alexa, set the temperature in the bedroom to 23 degrees”. After the Neapolitans, this function is used most frequently by the inhabitants of Salerno, with a 36% increase in voice interactions for the Smart Home compared to 2021.
Smart Home management through routines is also growing: compared to last year, actions performed through routines to manage your devices have grown by 27%, for a total of 23 million actions performed. You can set routines on the Alexa App and customize the commands. You can say, for example, "Alexa, I'm going to bed" and set Alexa to turn off all the lights in the house, or turn on the devices at sunset or at specific times. Benevento is in first place for the growth rate of Smart Home actions performed through routines: +153% compared to last year!
Time Management: Over 9 million activated timers
The timer setting proved to be invaluable for the people of Campania, which increased by 59% compared to the same period last year for a regional total of over 9 million activated timers. With Alexa, it is in fact possible to create, manage and cancel timers by simply saying: “Alexa, set a 5-minute timer”, or “Alexa, add 1 minute to my timer” to be sure you have everything under control. The people of Avellino are the users who have increased the timer setting the most this year: +74% compared to the same period last year.
Start of the day: Over 3 million alarms activated
Setting alarms is another of Alexa's essential functions for people from Campania. Simply ask "Alexa, set an alarm for 07:00" and the voice assistant will be ready to wake us up when and how we want. With Alexa, it is also possible to customize alarms by creating real routines to regularly repeat certain actions, such as starting the latest news, or playing your favorite music, without having to ask for it every morning. In Campania, there are over 3 million activated alarms, 51% more than in 2021. While Naples and Salerno remain in the lead in terms of number of alarms set and frequency of use of the function, Benevento is the province with the highest growth rate: +61% of alarms set compared to the period January-June 2021.
List creation: Over 1 million items added
One of Alexa's most useful and beloved features among Campania users is the creation of lists. From shopping lists to things to do, you can set up any type of list. We can ask her to remember the items present, add or delete others simply by saying "Alexa, add buffalo ricotta to my shopping list". It is a highly appreciated feature in all provinces, as demonstrated by the number of items added by users to their lists: 34% more than last year, for a total of over 1 million.
In the lead for number of items added, we find the Neapolitans with over 770 thousand, followed by the Salernitans with 175 thousand. Salerno is also in first place for growth rate, with 38% more items added to the lists, followed by Avellino with 37%.
Napule is… Alexa: over 120 million interactions with music
Users in Campania rely on Alexa to manage their time, organize
things to do, keep an eye on your home but also and above all to have fun and enjoy the songs you love. Our favorite songs and artists are always available through Alexa and Amazon Music, with unlimited access to 90 million songs on demand.
Between Farfalle and Ciao Ciao, there are more than 120 million interactions with music performed by users in Campania, 36% more than in 2021. The highest frequency of use is found in the provinces of Naples, Salerno and Caserta. Alongside Me contro Te, among the favorite artists of the Campanians, the Neapolitan singer-songwriter Pino Daniele could not be missing.
