How do I get Alexa to go to Tunein\

How do I get Alexa to go to Tunein rather the IHeart when I ask for a specific radio station. (tune in has less ads)

[strayfish]

On my devices, Tunein is the default gateway between the device and the radio station I want so I only have to ask it to 'play [radio station of choice]' and away it goes. I don't see how it can have fewer ads though, as far as I know, it just creates the link, it doesn't affect the programme's content.

Seconded. But you can try "play X on TuneIn" - I sometimes need to use that when Alexa gets confused.

This pretty much always works for me when nothing else will.

I have tried all of these and can't get it to work. I am trying to play the "The Gospel Hiway" on Tunein. Solution Number to say that it can't find it on Tunein right now. But if I play Tunein on my iPad or Cell phone it work great so I know it is in Tunein.

did you make the station a favorite?

You need to be very specific about the name of a station. Try adding a frequency number, or go to the website to see if it has another name.
