We have three Amazon Alexa Echo devices dotted around our home. Occasionally when asking Alexa a question other devices would then turn on at the same time, which can be annoying. If this happens to you try the following.
One reason this might be happening is the devices are grouped. If they are not grouped, you probably just need to change the wake word from Alexa to something else, especially if the devices are in close proximity to each other.
Open the Amazon Alexa app on your phone, select settings, then select Wake Word. As you can see from the screen shots below I have selected Ziggy.
Other Wake Words that can be used instead of Alexa are:
Amazon
Computer
Echo
Ziggy
