I bought an Amazon Tap so my spooky spying music speaker can travel with me around my new house. I know officially the Tap isn’t sold in the UK however I have read a few people who documented the hoops (and there are a few) to go through to get it to work.
My Tap arrived yesterday and setup was super easy. I did notice that the wake word is Alexa. Unlike the Echo you are not able to change it. I was cleaning up around the apartment and took it with me to listen to Spotify. After about an hour it stopped working. it kept saying it lost its connection. My Echo and all other devices working fine. I repaired the tap with my wireless yet it still isn’t working. I bought another Amazon speaker partially because it was branded easy to set up and get working.
I didn’t have the mental energy to deal with trying to reconfigure this. By the 3rd restart of the device while it was in its charging base it started working again. Lets see if it stays working ok.
