What is what does it mean when alexa is red?

When your <a href="https://www.wikiwhat.page/kavramlar/Alexa">Alexa</a> device displays a solid red light, it typically indicates that the microphone has been manually turned off. This means Alexa cannot hear your commands.

Here's what it means:

To resolve the red light issue:
