Need help adding different Tidal users to Echos on my Amazon account

0 Members and 1 Guest are viewing this topic.

I got my three kids Dots for Xmas, and since they're all minors, they can't have each on their own Amazon accounts. So I'm forced to have them all on my (adult) account. They all have their own Tidal accounts for keeping their own musical tastes individualized, but I can't figure out how to make that work with Dot setup. It seems like the only option is to add my Tidal user to all three of them (since they're automatically enabled with Tidal once I've done it with the first).

They each have their own voice recognition set up on their respective devices.

Thanks for your attention and advice.

I for one have no clue what Tidal is... so maybe it's not common to the users here. I would think going through the Tidal people would be a first point of entry to find out though. If their stuff works with Echo fo you, they surely know how to expand the user base for their product... right? But for a comparison, don't get too excited, as Apple and The Bridge for my HUE lighting is not terribly friendly and I've been to Apple and Hue both and no joy... for over 2 years, even with all the updates they've been given.

Good luck figuring out a cure.
