The device also supports TP-Link HomeShield, which protects IoT devices, has parental controls, and can create security reports. HomeShield has a free basic plan, but you can also upgrade to a paid pro plan.
The Deco Voice X20 will also support Alexa calling, messaging, and announcements, which helps you connect to people with your voice. The Deco Voice X20 product page states that "Alexa Calling, Messaging, and Announcements (ACM) features may not be available in early shipments, and users will need a subsequent firmware update."
