Start by tapping on the so-called hamburger menu on the top left of any Amazon Alexa app screen to reveal the main menu:įrom this point, tap on the “ Smart Home” link. In terms of setting it up, the process is pretty easy so grab your Android phone or iPhone and let’s get started! I’ll go through the steps using an Apple iPhone 7, but since it’s all in the Alexa app itself, the screens should be identical. If you’re on Spotify – like we are here at AskDaveTaylor – then you’ll be eager for the update. If you have one of the former as your main streaming service, you’re good to go. The issue ends up being about licensing rights: Amazon Music, TuneIn, iHeartRadio, and Pandora all work great over multiple speakers, but neither Spotify nor Sirius XM work as of today (though Amazon assures customers that both are “coming soon”, so we can only wait and hope). Though not really the same product at all, since so many people do use their Echo for music, being able to stream music to multiple devices simultaneously and in sync would be an obvious benefit. Since the first Amazon Echo was released, creating the voice-activated personal assistant and speaker category, people have been comparing it to the slick multi-room Sonos sound system.
