Alarms and Routines


If your device supports it, you can set your Alexa to play NTS as part of an alarm or routine. Make sure to include the word “NTS” before any of the channel or mixtape names e.g. “Alexa, set an alarm for 7am to play NTS Channel 1” or “...NTS Sheet Music”. 

Learn more via the Alexa help docs:


Multi-Room Playback

NTS is available for multi-room playback if you have multiple Alexa-enabled devices set up. For example, you can say “Alexa, play NTS Rap House everywhere.” 

You can swap “Rap House” with any of the channel or mixtape names above, and “everywhere” with any speaker group you've set up in the Alexa app.
