How To Make Alexa Play A Radio Station As An Alarm

Waking up to the soothing sounds of your favorite radio station can be a great way to start the day. With Alexa, you can easily set up a radio alarm so that you can wake up to your favorite tunes every morning. Here are the essential steps you need to follow:

1. Enable the Radio Skill

First, you need to enable the Radio skill on your Alexa device. To do this, open the Alexa app on your smartphone or tablet, tap the menu icon in the top-left corner, and then tap "Skills & Games." In the search bar, type "radio" and then tap the "Enable" button next to the Radio skill.

2. Set Up a Radio Alarm

Once the Radio skill is enabled, you can set up a radio alarm. To do this, say "Alexa, set an alarm for [time] to [radio station name]." For example, you could say "Alexa, set an alarm for 7:00 AM to WNYC." Alexa will confirm that the alarm has been set.

3. Choose Your Radio Station

When you set up a radio alarm, you can choose any radio station that is available through the Radio skill. To find a station, you can either say the name of the station or you can browse through the list of available stations. To browse the list of stations, say "Alexa, what radio stations are available?" Alexa will then list the available stations.

4. Set the Alarm Volume

You can also set the volume of the alarm. To do this, say "Alexa, set the alarm volume to [volume level]." You can set the volume level to any number between 1 and 10.

5. Snooze or Dismiss the Alarm

When the alarm goes off, you can either snooze it or dismiss it. To snooze the alarm, say "Alexa, snooze." To dismiss the alarm, say "Alexa, stop." You can also press the snooze or dismiss button on your Alexa device.

By following these steps, you can easily set up a radio alarm on your Alexa device. This is a great way to wake up to your favorite tunes every morning.
