So once you assign an Echo device to a group, it cannot be assigned to a second group. First off, each Echo device you own can only be part of one group of devices. There are currently a few shortcomings of multi-room audio that you should be aware of. Amazon says support for Spotify and SiriusXM will be coming soon. Streaming services that support multi-room audio include Amazon music, TuneIn, iHeartRadio, and Pandora. So if you make a group named “bedrooms” you would say “ Alexa, play in the bedrooms.”Īs already mentioned, the feature only works with Echo devices, so it does not work with the Amazon Tap or other Alexa devices, like the Amazon Fire TV or Fire TV Stick. Once you have a group created, you simply add the group name to the end of your music request to Alexa and the same music will begin playing on all of your grouped devices. The app suggests commonly used names, like “Downstairs” and “Everywhere,” but you can enter a custom name as well. You simply select two or more device and assign the group a name. Below your list of Alexa devices is a new option labeled “Multi-Room Music.” Selecting the option brings up a list of compatible devices that can have their audio synced together. To set up audio synchronization, go to the settings section of the Alexa app. The feature is also being made available to 3rd-party speaker manufacturers so non-Echo devices can also sync music with Amazon’s own speakers. The new feature allows you to group together multiple Echo devices and play music on all devices simultaneously. After several leaks, Amazon has now added support for multi-room audio to the Amazon Echo, Echo Dot, and Echo Show.
