How To Connect Your Friend’s Spotify To Alexa
If you don’t have a Spotify account but have friends over who do, they can use their own subscription easily. Follow the below steps to get hooked up:
- Have your friend connect to your Wi-Fi
- Command Alexa to Spotify Connect. Alexa will then search for another Spotify account on your Wi-Fi network and then connect to it, allowing them to play music from their collection.
Once set up, ask Alexa to “Play Spotify” to get the music flowing. Users can also favourite songs by asking Alexa to “Like this Song”. Ask Alexa “What’s Playing” for a song title, or even navigate through Spotify with commands like “Play my Discover Weekly”. Alexa can really make music a breeze in your home
