Setting Up Alexa
BLAST and MEGABLAST are all far-field voice-enabled speakers and when turned on, all you need to do is say, “Alexa” and then your request. The speaker will automatically hear you and respond. If the speaker is turned off, you’ll need to power it on for the far-field voice capability to work.
They support the following music services:
Amazon Prime Music
Amazon Music Unlimited
Pandora (US)
Deezer
TuneIn
iHeartRadio (US, Australia, New Zealand)
Spotify
Alexa skills can be enabled from the Alexa app. You can download the app from the iOS App Store or Google Play Store to browse and enable Alexa Skills.
