What is a custom Alexa skill?

• Amazon's voice service is called Alexa. Much like your phone has an "app", your Amazon devices (Echo, Echo Dot, Echo Tap, Echo Show, etc) have skills. Users interact with their Alexa enabled device via skills.
   
• Skills can be "default" - meaning they come pre-enabled on your Alexa device, or they can be "custom". Custom skills are searchable in the Alexa Skills Store and offer a more robust feature set.

Are custom Alexa skills free for Alexa users?

• Yes, custom Alexa skills are free for users to enable and interact with on their Alexa-enabled devices.

How do I enable 106.9 KHITS’ custom Alexa skill?

No need! You no longer need to enable the 106.9 KHITS skill before using it. Simply ask Alexa to "Open 106.9 KHITS"!

Just saying “Alexa, Open 106.9 KHITS” works best.

Skills have sets of features/abilities that you can access simply by asking. Until you are familiar with a skill's abilities, use Help or Options voice commands to hear what a skill can do. When you know what features are available, ask for your specific course of action.
