In May 2023, Amazon released several new Echo products. It consisted of a TWS earphone and three brand-new smart speakers. The third generation of the Echo Buds was also included in the launch, which goes by the name Amazon Echo Buds.
Now, a new software update is rolling out for Amazon Echo Buds 2023 (3rd generation). The latest update brings new features to the earbuds.
To begin with, you can now tap the earphones to start a suggested playlist, eliminating the need for you to fumble with your phone or even say aloud to ask Alexa for assistance.

Playlists may be started with a single long press or a triple tap, which can be customized in the Alexa app’s settings. Simply, open the Alexa app, head to the Echo Buds device settings, and then search for the audio customization choices.
Considering that Amazon claims to get the playlist by contacting “your preferred audio provider,” it appears that this functionality is compatible with all of the main streaming services. To get started, simply search for “Tap Controls” in the Echo Buds device settings.
Additionally, a new audio personalization feature allows you to adjust the sound and your physical surroundings. To create a richer sound, you may adjust the frequencies to emphasize the bass when taking a walk.
Even better, you can tune each ear separately from the other, so your right ear can have a different frequency range or be louder than your left.
According to the company, this setup takes around four minutes. It’s also important to note that the 2023 model and the 2021 second-generation Echo Buds are compatible with this capability.
