Bose wireless headphone plus Alexa / Spotify — questions

[Anonymous]

DS has an amazon dot in his bedroom, on which he listens to amazon music and Spotify. He got wireless Bose headphones for Christmas, and has hardly removed them from his ears since. I have no problem with the increased music listening, however, I suspect that games on his phone are also getting used more than usual because he controls the songs choices, skipping songs, etc from his phone (so the phone is in his hands the whole time he is listening to music).

Is it possible for my son to use the headphones to listen to Spotify and amazon music and control song selection, skipping, etc just from the headphones themselves, or with the amazon dot. If so, I figure he could leave his phone in the kitchen charging station and still listen to music before bed.

I have asked him this question, and he says he needs his phone nearby in order to skip and select songs.

Thank you.
