In an email to users, the company said the devices will no longer be supported as of July 21st. Shoppers can still use other Alexa-enabled devices to add items to a shopping list, the company noted.<\/p>\n<p>Released in 2017, the Wi-Fi-enabled Dash Wand was a few inches long and made out of white and black plastic, an update to Amazon&rsquo;s&nbsp;original Dash devices. In a&nbsp;2017 product review,&nbsp;<em>Verge<\/em>&nbsp;editor Nilay Patel said the Dash Wand was &ldquo;a fun toy and it certainly makes adding things to your Amazon cart easier.&rdquo; After giving them away to&nbsp;Prime members practically for free, however, Amazon didn&rsquo;t do much else with the Wand. The company&nbsp;killed its physical Dash buttons&nbsp;last year.<\/p>\n<p>To dispose of a Dash Wand, check out Amazon&rsquo;s&nbsp;recycling program. If you have one you can de-register it from your Amazon account under the &ldquo;manage content and devices&rdquo; section.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tags\">\n<div><strong>See Campaign: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/2020\/6\/21\/21298198\/amazon-alexa-support-dash-wand-shopping\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/2020\/6\/21\/21298198\/amazon-alexa-support-dash-wand-shopping<\/a><br \/><b>Contact Information:<\/b><br \/>Kim Lyons<\/p>\n<p><b>Tags:<\/b><br \/><a href=\"\"><\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/icrowdnewswire.com\/category\/news-category\/artificial-intelligence-newswire\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Artificial Intelligence Newswire<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/icrowdnewswire.com\/category\/news-category\/wire\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Wire<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/icrowdnewswire.com\/category\/global-regions\/united-states\/\" rel=\"category tag\">United States<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/icrowdnewswire.com\/category\/language\/english\/\" rel=\"category tag\">English<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\" alt=\"image\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" class=\"cwdfimg\" \/><\/div>\n<div>\n<h3>Contact Information:<\/h3>\n<p>Kim Lyons<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"233\" height=\"24\" src=\"https:\/\/icrowdnewswire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/4000-logo-222.png\" alt=\"\">Photo by Amelia Holowaty Krales \/ The Verge Amazon is ending support for its Dash Wand, an Alexa-enabled device that let shoppers scan grocery barcodes and order household essentials from their homes.
