Part 1: How to Connect Spotify to Alexa-Enabled Devices with Spotify Premium<\/strong><\/h2>\n
As a popular online digital music, podcast and video streaming service platform, Spotify gives you access to millions of songs and other content from artists all over the world. We all know that Spotify has both Free plan and Premium plan, both of which enable people to:<\/p>\n
1.\tUse the internal Browse and Search features to choose what you want to listen to.\n<\/p>\n
2.\tGet recommendations from personalized features like Discover Weekly, Release Radar, and Daily Mix. <\/p>\n
3.\tSee what friends, artists, and celebrities listen to. <\/p>\n
4.\tCreate your own Radio stations and build collections of music. <\/p>\n
However, with Spotify Free plan, you have to listen to Spotify music with ads, which appear every 3 or 4 songs. That would be quite bothering. If you upgrade to the Spotify Premium plan, you could listen to ads-free Spotify music on any Spotify enabled devices and players as you like. Meanwhile, you could also download Spotify music to no more than 3 devices for offline listening, have unlimited skip during Spotify music playback, enjoy non-stop music without ads, etc. What\u2019s more, the Spotify Premium plan allows you to connect Spotify to many voice speaker devices such as Amazon Alexa. <\/p>\n
The below steps would show you how to connect Spotify to Alexa enabled devices with Spotify Premium plan by using Spotify Connect, a Spotify remote control that enables you to listen to Spotify on speakers, TVs, and other devices using the Spotify app.<\/p>\n
1.\tConnect your Alexa enabled device and Spotify app to the same WiFi network. Make sure your apps are all up-to-date.\n<\/p>\n
2.\tOpen Spotify and play something. <\/p>\n
3.\tClick \u201cConnect to a device\u201d icon (on your computer or web player) or Devices Available (on your phone or tablet) in the bottom-right. <\/p>\n
4.\tTap the Amazon Alexa enabled device you want to play Spotify music to. <\/p>\n
Then, the playing Spotify music would be streamed over your Amazon Alexa enabled device. Try switching off the \u201cShow local devices only\u201d setting if you can\u2019t see your Alexa enabled devices<\/p>\n
This method helps you easily play Spotify on Alexa enabled devices, however, you need to upgrade to Spotify Premium for $9.99 per month. That would be a big cost.<\/p>\n
