Title: Alexa cast available --can cast Amazon Music to various Alexa devices
Post by: Laurel on July 29, 2018, 04:55:36 pm

If you update your Amazon Music app, you get an icon for casting music to all the Alexa devices.  It's pretty nice.   https://www.deccanchronicle.com/technology/gadgets/290718/alexa-cast-brings-audio-casting-for-echo-devices-new-echo-dot-leaked.html

I'm not clear how this is useful.  I can already control the music I play from my Alexa app on my phone.

Trying to play music from the Alexa app is dismal. The Amazon Music app is a little better.


For a minute I almost thought maybe Amazon should roll all the apps into one... Then I thought about iTunes. Lol no the world is better off with lots of sperate apps!
