Pro Tips

Pro Tip #1: How to play your Liked Songs

Add Spotify To Alexa

To play your Liked Songs (the ones you tap the heart icon for), say “Alexa, play my Liked Songs on Spotify.” You can even “like” a new song and add it to your Liked Songs list via Alexa just by saying “Alexa, like this song” while the song is playing.

Even if you’ve made Spotify your default music provider, for this Alexa command you still have to include the “on Spotify.”

Pro Tip #2: How to play your Discover Weekly and Daily Mix

Discovery weekly: Just say “Alexa play my Discovery Weekly playlist.”

Daily mix: Just say “Alexa, play my daily mix [insert number] playlist.”

Pro Tip #3: Sometimes it’s easier to listen to playlists via Alexa routine

When I listen to music, I generally listen to my favorite playlist of the moment. But I can never remember the exact Spotify playlist name to summon it with Alexa.

My solution: I created an Alexa routine that turns on the Spotify playlist whenever I say “Alexa, playlist.”

Plus, you can easily change the routine to play a different Spotify playlist (for when your favorite playlist inevitably changes).

Pro Tip #4: Why not create a few Alexa routines for different playlists?

If you want to easily summon multiple playlists, create a few routines with different Alexa command triggers. For example, “Alexa, morning playlist,””Alexa, relaxing playlist,””Alexa, energize playlist,” etc.
