Then I play something from the phone and a few seconds later she resumes playing whatever she thinks I want to hear, on top of my song!!! so I need to go "Alexa, stop!" once again. So I go "Alexa, stop" (to stop her playback). Alexa fails in that department.Īlexa also has the bad habit of playing two songs from Spotify at the same time! When I get fed up with the above issue, I switch to playing from my iPhone through Spotify Connect. But I'm an audiophile, music is super important in my everyday life. I got the Echo Dot as a gift at work so not complaining, I enjoy the to-do's, alarms and other features. Not atypical for this kind of device/service (works wonders for Apple stuff). I'm beginning to think it's some Amazon scheme to get people frustrated and into buying Amazon prime. If I just go "Alexa, skip", she goes through the handful of artists she always plays. She skips some songs but pretty sure not the number specified. She'll play the first song in the playlist. So I go "Alexa, shuffle (playlist name)". As long as you have the Music Unlimited subscription, you can ask Alexa to play fifty user-popular songs from the likes of Billie Eilish, Lady Gaga, Post Malone, Marshmello, CHVRCHES, The Weeknd, and more. I have playlists in Spotify with hundreds of songs with the sole purpose that I won't have to hear the same song twice. The Top 50 Most Played playlist is what you think it is a compilation of the most played tracks on Amazon Music. If I just say "Alexa, shuffle my music", she plays the same four artists and pretty much the same songs each and every time! No luck shuffling playlists either. After you make Spotify the default, you don't have to say "play so and so from Spotify", she's use whatever service is the default. I can get Alexa to play music and playlists from Spotify just fine. Alexa will try and get you to buy Amazon Prime to play music but there's an option within the app to make Spotify the default music player when sending voice commands. First, to those having trouble with getting Alexa to play Spotify properly. Re: How to play a playlist on Amazon Echo.
