A Apple announced today that Amazon expanded the integration of its virtual assistant, the Alexawith Apple Podcasts for over 40 countries, including Brazil e Portugal. This support for the Apple service, it is worth remembering, was announced in 2019, but at the time it was only available in the United States.
With the new feature, users will be able to easily enjoy their favorite podcasts through Amazon devices Echo e Fire TVfor example, just ask Alexa to play the episodes in the app.
To improve the experience, it is possible to link an Apple ID to the personal assistant app, ensuring that playback remains synchronized across your Apple devices and devices that support Alexa.
Let me explain: a user can start listening to an episode of a podcast through the Apple Podcasts app in CarPlay, while traveling, and easily resume listening at home, on their Echo speaker, by asking Alexa.
Users can also set Apple Podcasts as the preferred platform in the Alexa app. This measure clearly offers more convenience and flexibility to users, who now have another way to follow their favorite programs.
With this expansion, support for Apple Podcasts with Alexa is now available in the following countries (in addition to those previously mentioned, of course): South Africa, Germany
Argentina, Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Chile, Colombia, South Korea, Costa Rica, Denmark, Ecuador, Spain, Philippines, Finland, France, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Luxembourg, Malaysia, Mexico, Norway, New Zealand, Netherlands, Peru, Poland, Puerto Rico, United Kingdom, Singapore, Sweden, Switzerland, Thailand, Taiwan and Turkey.
