I have setup my echo dot and update the app and it does not work? Is this not supported in Norway? If not, will it ever? :?

Amazon Alexa control is only available in the US, UK, and Germany. We'd love to bring the integration world-wide one day, but no details we can share on when and where next.

Hello,

This too is my first post, go easy.

Oladonk, I have a good Customer that ive installed Sonos for including Sonos Ones and she has a daughter in Norway, she wants me to go to Norway and install a system for the daughter.
Are you saying that I can trick the Sonos account in thinking I am in UK/US and the Alexa will work?
Please confirm this will work ok for a dot and Connect amp too?

Thanks any help much appreciated ?

When I got the Amazon Echo Dot a couple of weeks ago, I had to do the tweeks with an American address, and with little effort it soon worked in Norway. Controlling my Sonos speakers (and my HomeSeer installation) with ease.
After I made it work I changed the adress back to Norway, so now it gives me weather for my hometown.

Today I got a Sonos One, and basically the same trick there. Just log on to your sonos-account, change setting to US (as described by OlaDunk above), and then it will let you add your Amazon account in the Sonos app. Then I just changed the setting back to Norway again.
Works like a charm :-)

Note: It does not understand Norwegian though - you have to speak English (or any of the other languages supported by Amazon Alexa)

On a different note... This works so well for me that it probably is gonna be expensive - I now have to replace a few Play:1 with Play ONE in order to use the voice control everywhere 😕
