Hi Kevin

My fault, I meant RadioPlayer, not iPlayer!

I like it as well just thought Jacky said I player was a skill that I 
could now use.   must have got it wrong again!   Sorry Jacky.

I tried that too and it seems the only radio app available apart from TuneIn 
is RadioPlayer which does pretty much the same job.  However, I do like the 
dot as an internet radio device.

Subject: [access-uk] MORE DOT QUESTIONS

Thanks to all for previously helpful tips.  Here are some more questions.

1.  I have checked a number of options in the flash briefings list in the 
app on my phone including Sky News, Radio 4 World Service and The guardian. 
When I ask Alexa for the news she automatically plays Sky News. How do I 
get her to play latest news from Radio 4?  When I’ve asked she’s played the 
r4 live stream from tune-in.  Sky News seems to be the default briefing, 
followed by any of the others you have ticked.

2.  If I want news from the guardian how do i get her to give me that?  
Say: "Alexa, open the Guardian."  You will get a welcome message, then 
follow the choices she offers you.

3.  Are any of these services chargeable?  for instance I notice that this 
full audio of The Economist but I assume you need a subscription?  
Similarly the Wall Street Journal is, I know, subject to a pay wall.  The 
Guardian isn't subscription-based, not sure about any of the other 
newspapers.

4.  How do I add things like the iPlayer or iPlayer Radio app?  You can go 
into Skills and add those that way, or ask her to activate the various 
skills for you.  Say: "Alexa, activate RadioPlayer."  Similarly, you can 
ask her to turn on Bluetooth so you can pair it with your phone.

thanks again for any help.
