You cannot cast your phone directly to Alexa devices like you would with a Chromecast or Apple TV. Alexa works with Bluetooth to play audio from your phone. To do this, enable Bluetooth on your phone and say, 'Alexa, pair.' Find the Alexa device in your phone's Bluetooth settings and connect. You can now play audio through your Alexa device.
