Once the multi-room music feature is set up, playing music is as easy as issuing a simple voice command. Say it:

  • "Play [music selection] on [group name]. "

You can also specify the service you want to use to play the music by saying:

  • "Play [music selection] on [group name] on Spotify." "

The feature works with the following music services:

  • Amazon Music Unlimited (Individual Plan or Family Plan)
  • Music from Amazon Prime
  • Amazon Music
  • Spotify
  • Third-party services like TuneIn and iHeartRadio

However, it won't work with any Bluetooth audio, as it disables Bluetooth connections while in use.

And don't forget that if you decide to listen to music with only one Amazon Echo, there are many other ways to play music on your Amazon Echo.
