Hi all I’m wondering if anyone can help me with this one. I received an Amazon Echo Dot 3rd generation at the weekend for my birthday. Now, I absolutely love it, but I’m concerned I’ve not set it up properly or not linked something from the Alexa app properly etc, as one of the things I really want to use it for immediately isn’t working properly, and I just don’t know why.
Basically, I want to set an alarm on it to wake me up in the morning with my favourite radio station. However, it won’t/doesn’t seem to want to let me use the radio station I want to, and yet it’ll set it perfectly happily to any other station I ask it. Where it gets even stranger is that it’ll quite happily play the station I want to use as an alarm. So I don’t understand what I’m doing wrong? So any help/ideas/suggestions would be much appreciated? Are there things I need to check on the Alexa app, the Dot itself, or any other apps on my phone?? Also, I thought I’d managed to link my Google calendar to the Dot, but again, it’s not letting me use all the functionality that it’s meant to have. For example, it might let me add an event, but it won’t let me move one. So again, any advice on how I can check that everything’s properly linked/connected would be much appreciated. Finally, if anyone has any suggestions on how I can double-check that my Dot’s set up correctly, things I should do, things it would be worth me enabling/linking, etc I’d be really grateful. I think I could really make use of the device, but to be honest, I feel like I don’t have a clue what I’m doing with it, especially with it playing up like this when I thought I’d done everything ok. Thanks for any help you can give. Eleanor Sent from my iPhone -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
