Thanks Paul, that is helpful. How do you pair the remote with the Dot or
Echo out of interest?
Kind Regards,

Yes.
There is a dmicrophone button and a circular arrows button with play pause
in the middle.
It's like using a remote for your cd player. It also controls volume.

Hi Paul
I like mine too. I just asked her if I had any packages to arrive,
and she told me I have one coming tomorrow which is the audio lead I
want to connect her to my hifi.
I don't have the remote, but are there physical buttons on it then for
moving between tracks?
Kind Regards,
Jackie Brown

Subject: [access-uk] Echo and skills
I am loving my Echo Dot.
I have been able to activate skills by asking "alexa enable" then the
name of the skill.
I don't know if every skill can be activated in this way but it would
avoid using the app.
I particularly love the Echo for playing music. The remote is great
for moving from track to track.
