DISH TV has partnered with Amazon Inc. to bring customers hands-free television.

The new voice-based service will allow users to vocally command their television with Amazon Alexa.

It is important to note that users with DISH TV will first need a Wally or Hopper receiver. Second, they will need to have one of the Amazon devices including: Amazon Echo, Echo Dot or Amazon Tap. Currently, these devices have compatibility with one another.

Business Wire reported:

The latest update will work on live DISH TV content, recorded, on-demand titles, as well as Netflix’s selection of TV shows and movies. Below are examples of spoken commands currently available.

• “Alexa, change channel to ESPN”
