For outputting audio based on a user's location, an apparatus is disclosed. A system, method, and program product also perform the functions of the apparatus. The apparatus for outputting audio based on a user's location includes a processor and a memory that stores code executable by the processor. The processor receives an audible command to output audio and associates the audible command with a particular user. Additionally, the processor monitors a location of the particular user and output audio, based on the command, from a device nearest a location of the particular user.
