Why Can’t I Connect My Spotify to Alexa?

When people think of streaming music services, Spotify is the first one that comes to mind. It’s no wonder, as it has millions of tracks, and users can create their own playlists or listen to curated ones. Unfortunately, Spotify does not have a native integration with Amazon Alexa, which means that you cannot connect your Spotify account to Alexa.

Although there is no official way to connect your Spotify account to Alexa, there are some workarounds that you can use. The most popular option is by using a third-party service called IFTTT (If This Then That).

IFTTT allows you to set up “applets” which are essentially automated commands. For example, you can set up an applet so that whenever you say “Alexa play my favorite playlist on Spotify,” it will open the playlist on your phone or tablet.

Another option is by using a Bluetooth connection. With this method, you’ll need an audio device with Bluetooth connectivity like an Echo Dot or other Alexa-enabled device. Then all you have to do is pair the device with your phone or tablet and start playing music from your Spotify account.

Conclusion:

Ultimately, there isn’t a way to directly connect your Spotify account to Alexa yet but there are options available if you want to get around this limitation. IFTTT is a great option for those who want an automated command system and if you have an audio device with Bluetooth connectivity then pairing it up with your mobile device should be sufficient enough.
