A:AnswerThat is what I am using both my Echo Dot and my wife's Echo Dot to do... utilize my SiriusXM subscription on the Echos. No fee for using Alexa that I'm aware of. Alexa is part of the Echo Dot package.
A:AnswerI’m unaware of any costs associated with the echo dot. I don’t pay recurring payments for it. I do have an amazon account, and believe you need one to operate but It does not have to be a prime account so there should be no fees.
A:AnswerHi Tater,
The Echo Dot does play radio stations! Tune in Radio is available to cue local stations as well as many other skills that allow access!
Have a great day!
A:AnswerYou can play Spotify once you link your account on amazon Alexa app. You do not need premium, it will simply play commercials like it does for free Spotify accounts
A:AnswerHello! You can move the Echo Dot to different locations, but it does need to be plugged in. It is not portable in the sense that it is wireless. It needs power from an outlet to work, but you can move it wherever as long as it is connected to the internet.
A:AnswerHello Carl8861,
Yes everyone in the home can use Alexa! There is both an Android and iPhone Alexa app available in each respective app store. Everyone in the home can have their own profile set up with Alexa as well, so she can play music or give calendar reminders for that user.
Hope this helps!
A:AnswerHello! There is no battery in the Echo Dot with Clock. It needs to be plugged into a wall outlet to use. I hope that answers your question. Have a great day!
A:AnswerI have an echo do, Echo show 8 and Echo show 5 and I can switch what I am listening to to either one. What's annoying is figuring out how to word your demand in away that will get Alexa to do it, lol.
A:AnswerHi:
You may need to reset it. Just plug wait 15-30 seconds and plug it back. It worked for me. Sometimes if the wifi or power gets interrupted it happens.
A:AnswerYou can create a smart home. You can use your voice to control smart devices, smart plugs, smart lights, etc., compatible with Alexa. It is a whole new world of automation you can have in your home.
A:AnswerSay the key word "Alexa" then play "name of artist" be sure to have your music streaming services account linked to your Alexa app. I have Amazon music so I say: "Alexa play Frank Sinatra on Amazon Music" then she plays your selection.
