With the Radioplayer Skill you can play high-quality streams from over 500 UK radio stations - including all BBC channels, commercial stations like Heart, Capital, Kiss, Absolute Radio, Jazz FM and talkSPORT - as well as hundreds of local and community stations. And you can now play selected podcasts and catchup shows too !
- Just say "Alexa, ask Radioplayer to play Classic FM", and she'll play any station of your choice.
- While you’re listening, say "Alexa, ask Radioplayer what’s playing", and she’ll give you the programme name and the track and artist (if available).
- Say "Alexa, ask Radioplayer to recommend a station", and she'll play you some things you might like, based on where you are, what’s trending right now, and what else you've listened to.
- To play selected podcasts and catchup programmes, just say “Alexa, ask Radioplayer to play The Archers on catchup”, and she’ll find the latest episode and start playing it.
- You can then say “Alexa, back” to find the previous episode, or “Alexa, next” to find the following one.
Note: If you’re using this skill outside the UK, some broadcasters may prevent their station streams from playing, due to rights restrictions.
