Amazon echo and local radio

ThumbTaxed · 2020-03-30 16:24:29

Hi all, stupid question perhaps but does Echo support getting local radio stations, or even stations like Today FM played directly from the device (as opposed via bluetooth from a phone). I presume so but not sure.

Yes, but I normally do it via TuneIn

"Play RTE Radio 1 on Tunein"

Yes - great radio to be honest - once you set them up as a skill like Tunein - they work directly playing the radio - top tip from working from home - you can tell them to shut up when the phone rings
