Why won t Alexa play my Spotify playlist?
Alexa Won’t Play my Playlist – It can be rather frustrating when Alexa won’t cooperate. It’s normal if Alexa plays a random sound every once in awhile because she didn’t hear you correctly, but it’s entirely different if she won’t play any of your songs at all.
- There are some simple fixes if Alexa isn’t cooperating with your music requests.
- Of course, the first thing you should do is try restarting Alexa.
- But, if it still doesn’t work, make sure Spotify is set as your default music player.
- To do this, tap on the three horizontal lines in the lower right-hand corner.
Next, tap Settings and scroll down to ‘ Music & Podcasts,’ Select ‘ Default ‘ and enable Spotify. This should clear up your problem if it’s a connection issue. If Alexa is still having difficulty understanding you, it may be time to update your Playlists’ name. If you’re telling Alexa to play your “Heavy metal playlist,” she may come back with some random sounds. But, if you change the playlist name, she’ll likely respond with the music you want.
Lastly, some users have reported that Alexa will not activate their playlist if the shuffle is turned on. Head over to the playlist and turn off the shuffle function at the top. Assuming you’re logged into the right account, these methods should fix your musical woes.
