Hi,

It's because you said the word App.  Just say Enable Player Radio.  It is not 
iPlayer.

All the best

Steve

I asked alexa to enable the eye player radio app,   she said she 
couldn't find that app.

Subject: [access-uk] MORE DOT QUESTIONS

Thanks to all for previously helpful tips.  Here are some more questions.

1.  I have checked a number of options in the flash briefings list in the app 
on my phone including Sky News, Radio 4 World Service and The guardian. When 
I ask Alexa for the news she automatically plays Sky News. How do I get her 
to play latest news from Radio 4?  When I’ve asked she’s played the r4 live 
stream from tune-in.  Sky News seems to be the default briefing, followed by 
any of the others you have ticked.

2.  If I want news from the guardian how do i get her to give me that?  Say: 
"Alexa, open the Guardian."  You will get a welcome message, then follow the 
choices she offers you.

3.  Are any of these services chargeable?  for instance I notice that this 
full audio of The Economist but I assume you need a subscription?  Similarly 
the Wall Street Journal is, I know, subject to a pay wall.  The Guardian 
isn't subscription-based, not sure about any of the other newspapers.

4.  How do I add things like the iPlayer or iPlayer Radio app?  You can go 
into Skills and add those that way, or ask her to activate the various skills 
for you.  Say: "Alexa, activate RadioPlayer."  Similarly, you can ask her to 
turn on Bluetooth so you can pair it with your phone.

thanks again for any help.
