How to Play YouTube Music on Alexa?

Previously, bringing YouTube Music to Alexa was a breeze, but now you can't connect YouTube Music to Alexa the way you can with Spotify and Apple Music. This is indeed a pity. But no need to worry. Even if Alexa doesn't support YouTube Music, there's still two ways to get your Alexa device to play YouTube music. Next, this article will show how to utilize Bluetooth as well as NoteBurner YouTube Music Converter to play YouTube Music on Alexa. Getting Started!

An easy way to play YouTube Music on your Alexa device is connecting them via Bluetooth. Before connecting, you need to prepare:

💡 What you need:

• An Alexa-supported device.
• A Bluetooth-enabled smartphone or computer.
• YouTube Music app installed on your smartphone or open in your computer browser.

After making sure that these three necessities are in place, we're ready to go. To begin with, set up Bluetooth pairing on Alexa. To activate Alexa pairing mode, you can say "Alexa, pair Bluetooth". Another option is via the Alexa app on your smartphone. Just follow the steps below!

1. Install the Alexa app on your phone.
2. Open the app and tap on the "Devices" at the bottom of the screen. Then find the All Devices on the top of the screen and click it.
3. Once you're on the new screen, select the "Echo dot" option and then click the "Settings" icon in the top right corner.
4. Tap on the "Pair a New Device" button at the bottom of the screen.

Now your Alexa device has been in pairing mode. You can then connect your phone or computer to it.

1. Go to the Settings app on your phone.
2. Choose the Bluetooth option and then tap on the switch to turn it green.
3. Wait a minute until the name of your Alexa appears. Click the name to pair it with your phone.

1. Open the Settings of your computer.
2. Choose the Bluetooth and Other Devices option, and then tap on Bluetooth to open it.
3. Click the Add Device button to add your Alexa device to your computer.

After pairing or adding, Alexa will confirm the successful Bluetooth pairing. You may hear a voice prompt or see a notification in the Alexa app.

Directly tap to play a YouTube Music song or playlist on your phone or computer, and it will play on Alexa. You can use voice commands with Alexa, like "Alexa, stop," "Alexa, next," and "Alexa, disconnect Bluetooth" to control playback.
