Does Alexa support Spotify?

Answered by Michael Wilson

Alexa does support Spotify! With the integration of Spotify and Alexa, you can easily control your Spotify music using voice commands through your Alexa-enabled devices. This allows you to enjoy your favorite songs, playlists, and podcasts without having to manually control your music.

To link your Spotify account to Alexa, you’ll need to follow these steps:

1. Download and open the Alexa app on your mobile device.

2. Tap on the menu icon located in the top-left corner of the app.

3. From the menu, select “Settings”.

4. In the Settings menu, tap on “Music & Podcasts”.

5. Look for the Spotify option and select it.

6. Tap on “Link account to Alexa”.

7. You’ll be prompted to sign in to your Spotify account. Enter your Spotify username and password to proceed.

After successfully linking your Spotify account to Alexa, you can now use voice commands to control your music. For example, you can say “Alexa, play my Discover Weekly playlist on Spotify” or “Alexa, play songs by [artist name] on Spotify”.

It’s worth noting that you can also set Spotify as your default music service on Alexa, so that whenever you ask Alexa to play music, it will automatically use Spotify as the source. To set Spotify as your default music service, follow these steps:

1. Open the Alexa app.

2. Tap on the menu icon in the top-left corner.

3. Select “Settings” and then choose “Music & Podcasts”.

4. Tap on “Default Services”.

5. Under the “Music” section, select “Spotify”.

Now, whenever you ask Alexa to play music, it will use Spotify as the default music service.

The integration of Spotify and Alexa provides a convenient and hands-free way to enjoy your favorite music and podcasts. Whether you want to listen to specific songs, playlists, or discover new music, Alexa makes it easy to control your Spotify experience with just your voice.
