Amazon just gave its portable speaker a much needed update.。

The company is adding hands-free functionality to the Echo Tap, finally bringing it up to speed with the other devices in the Echo Line. 。

Previously, you could only interact with Alexa by holding down the microphone button. Once hands-free is enabled, you can use Alexa just as you would with a full-sized Echo. 。

Amazon says the Tap's battery should last about eight hours while in hands-free mode, which should be sufficient for most on-the-go situations (note that you'll still need a Wi-Fi connection in order to use Alexa.) Set to roll out over the next couple weeks, the new feature can be enabled in the Alexa app.。 Why we are only getting this now, nearly a year after the Echo Tap first launched, is the big question.
