Setting up the Alexa App<\/h2>\n

To set up or reset your Echo device,<\/a> you need the Amazon Alexa app, available on Android and iOS. If you don\u2019t see the app on your smartphone or tablet, simply visit your app store, research the app, and download it using links. Once downloaded, log in using your Amazon account details.

Using Alexa Routines<\/h2>\n

Alexa routines allow you to automate multiple tasks with a single voice command using the voice assistant feature.

Enjoying Amazon Music and Podcasts<\/h2>\n

With your Echo setup complete, it\u2019s time to relax and enjoy some music or podcasts. If you have Amazon Prime, you have access to a vast library of songs and podcasts on Amazon Music<\/a>. To play the one you want, press and hold and just ask “Alexa”!<\/p>\n
