Specifically, Amazon announced two new sets of tools for developers to bring multi-room music control to their speakers: the new Alexa Voice Service (AVS) Multi-Room Music SDK, and the Connected Speaker APIs.ĪVS device makers will now be able to integrate with Amazon Alexa Multi-Room Music, allowing users to play their music across supported Echo and third-party AVS devices. For manufacturers, Amazon announced a new set of developers tools to enable those same multi-room features on their devices and create additional voice-controlled music experiences with Alexa.
Users in the US, UK, and Germany can already start using multi-room music now on their Echo, Echo Dot, and Echo Show devices. According to Amazon, users simply need to use the Alexa App to create groups with two or more Echo devices by naming the group, such as “downstairs.” Once the user created the group, it can be controlled by simply saying “Alexa, play John Mayer downstairs.” Users will now be able to synchronize music playback across Echo devices to play songs from Amazon Music, TuneIn, iHeartRadio, and Pandora, with support for Spotify and Sirius coming soon. “Today, we’re making Alexa even smarter with an all-new feature that lets you play music synchronized on multiple Echo devices to provide room-filling music throughout your home.”
“In just the last few months, we’ve added dozens of new features to Alexa that enhance your entertainment experience-control of Amazon Fire TV and your home entertainment systems via Echo music lyrics, Amazon Video, and movie trailers on Echo Show and activity-based music searches - and we’re just getting started,” says Toni Reid, Vice President, Amazon Alexa.
