HTC launched its flagship smartphone, the U11 in May with a unique Edge Sense feature. This feature allows users to invoke various functions just by squeezing the smartphone.
Now a new update is being rolled out to this flagship product which brings changes and improvements in this Edge Sense app. The most important change is support for AI assistant Alexa.

However, users have reported the inability to launch Alexa despite installing the new update. An announcement from HTC USA clears the confusion. HTC USA, via a tweet, has confirmed that the company will make Alexa officially available on U11 starting July 17th.

Once the Alexa support for HTC U11 goes live, users will be able to launch the digital assistant by squeezing their phone. An HTC U11 user, who has received the update, shared a video on Twitter revealing the changes brought about by the update.
