Yes.

There is a dmicrophone button and a circular arrows button with play pause in 
the middle.

It's like using a remote for your cd player. It also controls volume.

Hi Paul

I like mine too.  I just asked her if I had any packages to arrive, and she
told me I have one coming tomorrow which is the audio lead I want to connect
her to my hifi.

I don't have the remote, but are there physical buttons on it then for
moving between tracks?

Kind Regards,

Subject: [access-uk] Echo and skills

I am loving my Echo Dot.

I have been able to activate skills by asking "alexa enable" then the name
of the skill.

I don't know if every skill can be activated in this way but it would avoid
using the app.

I particularly love the Echo for playing music. The remote is great for
moving from track to track.
