Frontier Communications Offers Amazon Alexa Voice Control on FiOS® Quantum TV

Frontier Communications’ FiOS Quantum TV subscribers can now
enjoy a hands-free video experience using Amazon Alexa. The
integration of Amazon Echo devices -- Amazon Echo, Echo Dot, Amazon
Tap, Echo Plus, Echo Spot, Echo Show and more – with Quantum TV
ends the “sofa search” for the remote control.
Now, Frontier customers can simply “ask Alexa” to change
channels, search Live TV shows and our extensive Video on Demand
catalog as well as control the video playback itself (pause,
fast-forward, rewind).
Ease of use begins with installation. Quantum TV customers can
use this feature by enabling the Frontier Skill from the Music,
Video & Books section in the Amazon Alexa App, then seamlessly
pairing their Alexa device to the Quantum Set Top Box. Once done,
just ask Alexa the following commands to control your FiOS Quantum
TV experience:
“Alexa tune to ESPN”“Alexa change the channel to 102”“Alexa
search for Game of Thrones”“Alexa show me all movies by Tom
Cruise”“Alexa pause”“Alexa skip forward”“Alexa rewind”
John Maduri, Executive Vice President of Consumer Sales &
Marketing for Frontier, notes, “Alexa voice control on FiOS Quantum
TV is a great step forward. Alexa uses simple, natural language and
intuitive and creative ways to control the video experience. I am
confident customers will love this offering, and we look forward to
expanding its availability.”
