Can you stream to an Echo Dot from any/many music apps on your phone like the Chromecast? Or do you have to control everything by voice?

- zalthor 8y agoI have it set up so that it connects to my phone via bluetooth, and I output audio from whatever service I want on my phone. Also, you can get it to connect to your phone via a voice command ("Alexa connect <device name>"), when you want to use it.
- jenscow 8y agoYou can use the Echo as a bluetooth speaker.
- sciurus 8y agoYou can. In the spotify app on my phone or computer I can choose an echo dot (or group of multiple alexa devices) as the output device. Alternately, you can pair with an echo dot and use it as a bluetooth speaker.

- evan_ 8y agoI use Spotify, all of my Echo devices show up as different outputs in the Spotify app, along with the groups I've set up ("Everywhere").
- evan_ 8y agoI just discovered that if you say “Alexa, Spotify connect” then anyone can connect their phone as long as they’re on the same WiFi network as the device.
