Amazon Prime Music brings Alexa hands-free functionality to mobile devices

Starting today, Prime Music is bringing Alexa wake word capability to the Amazon Music mobile app, providing customers with a full integration of voice capabilities. Now, when customers open the Amazon Music app, they can ask Alexa to play music wherever they go without touching to talk – a completely hands-free listening experience!

When the Amazon Music app is open and in the foreground on any iOS and Android smartphones, customers can safely utilize all of the innovative voice features they use on Echo devices to play music by mood, genre, artist or song title and much more, no searching or browsing required. Customers can now simply say “Alexa”, to play, pause, move back and forth between songs, and much more.
