Without leaving all the decisions in Alexas hands, you can get her help in putting together that perfect playlist for any situation you may be in. Lets show you how this is done!

Create an Amazon Echo playlist

Simply tell Alexa you want her to create a playlist:

  • Say Alexa, create a new playlist.
  • Alexa will then prompt you to name the playlist.

Alternately, you can give Alexa extra information at the outset to save time:

  • Say Alexa, create a bedtime playlist or;
  • Alexa, create a road trip playlist or;
  • Alexa, create a Valentines Day playlist.

You get the picture. You can name your playlist whatever you like.

Edit an Amazon Echo playlist with your voice

Once youve created a new playlist, youll want to populate it with songs. Unfortunately, your options are pretty limited in terms of using your voice. You can only add songs via Amazon Prime Music or Amazon Music Unlimited with voice commands. You also cant just list a bunch of songs all at once.

Heres how adding a song works:

  • Start listening to the song you want on your playlist.
  • Say Alexa, add this song to [the name of your] playlist.
  • If you happen to think of a song you want to add thats not playing, you can just say it. For example: Alexa, add One More Year by Tame Impala to my Saturday Morning playlist.

Thats it. Repeat these steps with each song you want on your playlist.

As for deleting songs from your playlists, you cannot use Alexa voice commands. Instead, log into the Amazon Music app. There, you can delete songs at your convenience.
