iPhone is purely a secondary device for me so my music listening is spread across Amazon and Spotify. With this in mind, I apologise for never realising Apple Music users couldn’t easily stream their tunes on an Amazon Echo. The good news is, Amazon and Apple are finally seeing eye-to-eye on this one.
While this appears to have launched Stateside in mid-March, Irish users can now enjoy this feature too.
Stream Apple Music on Amazon Echo
The first thing you’ll need to do to enjoy Apple Music on an Amazin Echo is to have a subscription to Apple Music and an Amazon Echo device. In the Amazon Alexa app on your phone, you can link your Apple Music account to your Amazon account.
Once you’ve done this, Amazon says playing music gets really easy. All you need to do is holler out something like “Alexa, play today’s hits on Apple Music” and away you go.
It might seem like a fairly simple thing, but I bet there are some users out there who have Apple Music and Spotify, with the latter being kept for the smart speaker in the living room.
Problem solved.
