"Yandex finally fulfilled one of the most popular user requests and allowed "Stations" to be controlled through the app without voice commands. Now you don't have to shout over the music playing in order to switch tracks, give likes, or adjust the volume.
Speaker control was added in the latest update of "Yandex.Music". "Station" is selected on the playback screen in the upper right corner, and if there is more than one, you can switch.
Since the connection is not implemented via Bluetooth, playback will not be interrupted in the event of a call or notification. "Station" and the smartphone must be in the same Wi-Fi network, and the speaker itself must be used with the same profile as the app.
Now you can manage all "Stations": Basic, Station Mini, Station Lite and Station Max. In the future, Yandex promised to expand the list of features and think about supporting smart speakers with "Alice" from third-party manufacturers.
