Home app and two Amazon Music accounts?

[elshaddai]

Just got the Audio Pro A10 WiiM Edition speaker. It is our first use of the WiiM Home app, so maybe a basic question...

I installed the WiiM Home app on my phone and got everything set up, including logging into my Amazon Music account. Works great. I installed the WiiM Home app on my wife's phone and saw that it automatically had my Amazon Music account loaded. She has her own account with music and playlists, etc., but I can't see any way to access both of our accounts from our respective phones in the WiiM Home app.

Is this possible or will one of us need to use casting or bluetooth to play music from our own account?

Thanks!

The WiiM Home app only allows linking to one Amazon Music account per device, so the second account would need to cast from the Amazon Music app. This would need to be done using Chromecast which is limited to HD quality - AlexaCast can’t be used as the WiiM/A10 doesn’t support Alexa/ AlexaCast

Edit: edited to remove AlexaCast in the context of the A10 as it’s not supported. Thanks @Wiimer

The WiiM Home app only allows linking to one Amazon Music account per device, so the second account would need to cast from the Amazon Music app. This would need to be done using Chromecast which is limited to HD quality - AlexaCast can’t be used as the WiiM/A10 would be registered under the other account if it had been linked for AlexaCast use in the WiiM home app. A similar constraint exists with Amazon echo devices but you don’t have the ability to use Chromecast with them.

In any case, the A10 is not compatible with AlexaCast.

Well spotted, young sir I had totally forgotten that…

And given the A10 only supports up to 24/48 playback as far as can be ascertained, Chromecast may well suffice.

Do you think WiiM would implement multiple accounts within the WHA with the integrated services?

I agree.

I'm sure you were just preoccupied with Super Mario.

Appreciate the quick reply and clarification. Chromecast it is!
