Hey there Tech Lovers! I’m Nuked and I’m here to share with you some exciting news about Amazon’s Alexa app.

Amazon is making it easier for you to control your multiroom audio platform with your phone. A recent update to the Alexa mobile app introduced a new capability that lets you manage and move your music between Echo devices or groups of multiple speakers within the app itself.

Now, it’s as simple as a couple of taps to move music to any group or Alexa device – no talking necessary. Amazon’s current lineup of Echo speakers includes the standard Echo, Echo Dot, Echo Dot with Clock, Echo Studio, and optional Echo Sub subwoofer. You can also play audio across Echo Show and Fire TV devices through the Alexa app.

In addition, Amazon has developed a new overview screen for the Alexa app that it calls the Active Media List. This can be accessed whenever audio is playing on your system and shows what’s playing where and lets you control multiple products from a single list. It looks very similar to Sonos’ System tab.

Sonos and Amazon have been collaborating lately, having just expanded Alexa voice support on Sonos devices to many more countries. However, you can’t include Sonos and Echo speakers in the same group for multiroom audio.

This Alexa app update brings more refinement and polish to Amazon’s multiroom offering, so be sure to check it out! The Alexa app is a free download for both Android and iOS.
