How to Make Alexa Automatically Speak Louder in Loud Settings

Introduction

Maybe you’ve got people over and there’s a lot of ambient noise. Maybe you’re kids are playing and you can’t hear anything. In these scenarios your Amazon Alexa device’s normal audio level may make it difficult to hear or interact with. Thankfully, Amazon makes it possible to turn on an adaptive volume setting where your Alexa devices will automatically speak louder in noisy settings.

Some of the images associated with the steps are included inline below. All images associated with these steps can be seen in the embedded YouTube video.
