      A Final Quick Reminder About Updates

      INTRODUCTION

      Want the Latest Tap News?

      Before we start, we just want to remind you about the FREE updates for this book. The Amazon Tap and indeed all media streaming services, like Apple TV, Roku and the Chromecast, are still in their infancy. The landscape is changing all the time with new services, apps and media suppliers appearing daily.

      Staying on top of new developments is our job and if you sign up to our free monthly newsletter we will keep you abreast of news, tips and tricks for all your streaming media equipment.

      If you want to take advantage of this, sign up for the updates here: www.lyntons.com/updates. Don't worry; we hate spam as much as you do so we will never share your details with anyone.

      Welcome

      Welcome and thank you for buying the Amazon Tap User Guide: Newbie to Expert in 1 Hour!, a comprehensive introduction and companion guide to the exciting possibilities that the Tap Bluetooth speaker and personal assistant has to offer.

      Do You Need This Book?

      We want to be clear from the very start - if you consider yourself tech savvy, e.g. the kind of electronics user that intuitively knows their way around any new device or is happy Goggling for answers, then you probably don't need this book.

      We are comfortable admitting that you can probably find most of the information in this book somewhere on Amazon's help pages or on the Internet - if, that is, you are willing to spend the time to find it!

      And that’s the point… this Amazon Tap book is a time saving manual primarily written for those new to streaming media devices, Bluetooth devices and tech that works in tandem with your PC or mobile device.

      If you were surprised or dismayed to find how little information comes in the box with your Tap and prefer to have to hand, like so many users, a comprehensive, straightforward, step by step Amazon Tap guide, to finding your way around your new device, then this book is for you.

      Furthermore the Amazon Tap is a brand new piece of kit and there will be new features, channels and games, not to mention Amazon Tap tips and tricks, appearing constantly over the coming months. We will be updating this Amazon Tap manual as these developments unfold, making it an invaluable resource for even the tech savvy.

      Even if you are buying the first edition of this Amazon Tap instruction book, never fear, you too can keep up to speed with all the new Amazon Tap updates by signing up to our free email newsletter so you’ll never miss a thing.

      How To Use This Book

      Feel free to dip in and out of different chapters, but we would suggest reading the whole book from start to finish to get a clear overview of all the information contained. We have purposely kept this book short, sweet and to the point so that you can consume it in an hour and get straight on with enjoying your Amazon Tap.

      This Amazon Tap user manual aims to answer any questions you might have and offer Amazon Tap information including:

      What is the Amazon Tap and how does it work?

      What does the Tap do?

      How to setup your Tap

      How to setup Alexa

      How to manage your Amazon Tap account

      Amazon Tap and Alexa
