Help CentreOnce the skill is installed, you're logged in, and you have titles in your My Calibre playlist, you're ready to start listening.
Say "Alexa, open the skill My Calibre Player" to launch the skill. You'll hear a short jingle to confirm it has opened.
Tip: Emphasise the words "my – kal – e – berr player" to avoid Alexa opening your calendar by mistake. If Alexa opens something else, say "Alexa, stop" and try again.
Alexa will ask if you want to continue listening to your current book:
- Say "Yes" to resume that title from where you left off (or from the beginning if no bookmark exists)
- Say "No" to hear a list of other titles in your playlist - just say the book name to start playing it
During playback you can say:
- "Alexa, pause"
- "Alexa, skip forward"
- "Alexa, go back"
- "Alexa, sleep timer for X minutes"
To stop listening, say "Alexa, stop" or "Alexa, cancel" — a bookmark will be placed at that point automatically.
To resume after stopping, say "Alexa, keep listening".
