They only showed the voice-controll once. But for me, a input possibilty wouldnt be needed much. It shall just show our calendar, the clock and the weather forecast (: Probably would an old (forked)android tablet be enough. Ill look into this

I dont know exactly too what the alexa show really is, to be honest. But my friends are using it mostly as a digital display for their synchronized calendars and the weather forecast. Like a paper based family planer and a weather station for your kitchen. Yeah, i can do it paper based too. But Im way to lazy to keep a calendar up to date with all this daily tasks in modern family life. :)
For car navigation: The in the eOS implemented Version of Magic Maps. Im using it on a daily basis in a professional Context and in my Area (Hamburg, Northern Germany) it works as reliable as googlemaps. (My colleagues are using gm) Traffic-Data is mostly not that accurate. And if you need information about special Adresses like opening hours, ill just look it up otherwise, like on their websites.
For Navigation by bike or for hiking I use the paid German App "komoot". As a bike Commuter - its the (in my opinion) by far best app for Biking But to be honest, I dont know their privacy rules. And i cant tell if they have a translated version for their app
Thanks for the advice!
