Disclaimer:
Amazon Alexa has not yet been officially released in SA. As such, NOT ALL FEATURES WILL WORK IN SA.
Setting the device up requires some technical knowledge, but it is not difficult if you know how. We will send you instructions on how to do a basic setup, and are happy to give telephonic or e-mail support during office hours.
Installing the App on your phone is very tricky if you have iOS/iPhone. Android phones are easier. BUT everything can be done from the desktop/laptop app, by visting alexa.amazon.com - you don't need the phone app to setup or use the device.
