Alexa and Bose SoundTouch

[scampbell61]

A picture is worth a thousand words, when will your loyal customers be able to use Alexa with their Bose SoundTouch speakers?

Yesterday? I don't have an Echo to confirm.

Thank you for your inquiry! 

As of now, the new Alexa skill is expected to be available by December 5th. You can find the details HERE. 

Best regards,

The picture of Sonos with an Echo may be worth a thousand words but over on Amazon the skill for Sonos is labeled "open beta" and so far (for 650 reviews) is only worth 2.5 stars. ... I don't completely want to defend Bose's late delivery of the skill, but am hopeful it will be right.

If I preferred Sonos, I wouldn't be hanging out on a Bose forum.  I would purchase a Sonos and hang out on their forum.

I love Bose speakers, have several pairs, only wanted Bose but I have been disappointed about the time it has taken to integrate with Alexa.

As soon as I posted this advertisement that I saw online, I was notified that a phased Alexa update was in progress.

Very Happy!!!
