WHAT IS A CUSTOM ALEXA SKILL?

• Amazon’s voice service is called Alexa. Much like your phone has an “app”, your Amazon devices (Echo, Echo Dot, Echo Tap, Echo Show, etc) have skills. Users interact with their Alexa enabled device via skills.
• Skills can be “default” – meaning they come pre-enabled on your Alexa device, or they can be “custom”. Custom skills are searchable in the Alexa Skills Store and offer a more robust feature set.

ARE CUSTOM ALEXA SKILLS FREE FOR ALEXA USERS?

Yes, custom Alexa skills are free for users to enable and interact with on their Alexa-enabled devices.

HOW DO I ENABLE THE CUSTOM ALEXA SKILL FOR 94.9 WDKB? (YOU WILL ONLY HAVE TO DO THIS ONCE!)?

To enable, you have three options:

• ​Search Amazon.com/skills for 94-9 WDKB & enable or click HERE
• Open the Alexa companion app on your mobile device, search for 94-9 WDKB Skill & click enable
• Say “Alexa, enable 94-9 WDKB skill”

ONCE MY SKILL IS ENABLED, HOW DO I USE IT?

• Simply say “Alexa, open 94-9 WDKB” or
• If you say “Alexa, play 94-9 WDKB”, the skill will open giving you access to the live stream and more!
• Skills have sets of features/abilities that you can access simply by asking. Until you are familiar with a skill’s abilities, use Help or Options voice commands to hear what a skill can do. When you know what features are available, ask for your specific course of action.
