Ask Alexa for a song, an artist or a style of music on Amazon Music, Apple Music, Spotify, Deezer and TuneIn. With multiple compatible echo devices in different rooms, you can fill the whole house with music. You can also listen to Audible and radio stations. Make life easy at home. Use your voice to set timers, keep lists, or create calendar entries and reminders. Listen to the news, the weather or traffic information. Ask for sports scores, movie schedules, and more.

Use your Alexa device like an intercom and talk to any room in your home about drop in and announcements. Let everyone know that dinner is ready or remind the kids that it's time to go to bed. Also make hands-free calls to your Alexa contacts. Alexa is constantly learning and has thousands of skills. Skills are like apps and help you with everyday things. For example, play relaxing sounds or put your music knowledge to the test. Just ask: "Alexa, what are your top skills?"
