Update brings the ability to listen to live concerts on the Amazon Echo
Amazon are adding some new features to their smart speaker the Amazon Echo. Users can now ask it sports scores and team schedules for the WNBA women’s basketball league. Another cool feature is the ability to ask to listen to live concerts and events using TuneIn.
Amazon already offers scores and schedules from the MLB, MLS, NHL, NFL, NCAA, and NBA. The addition of the WNBA is welcomed. To access scores simply ask questions like “Alexa, who won the world series?” or “Alexa, when is the next Toronto Maple Leafs game?”. The Echo will then quickly look it up and respond back an answer similar to how Google Now or Siri would. To listen to TuneIn live events you can just say “Alexa, play BBC Live Event on TuneIn.”
If you already have an Amazon Echo you can also download the Google Play app to control the Echo from your phone or use it to stream music etc to it.
