How to use Spotify's Jam feature to create playlists from many people

Jam Spotify is a newly updated feature on the application, supporting the creation of playlists from many people when we connect to each other via a WiFi network. With this Jam Spotify feature, songs recommended by many people are added to playlists, without having to add the extra task of searching for songs and adding them manually. Below are instructions for using the Jam Spotify feature.

What is the Jam Spotify feature?

The Jam feature on Spotify helps users create music playlists for family and friends, when everyone can participate and contribute to that playlist. Just connect your mobile phone to the Bluetooth speaker to play music.

Everyone who participates in building that playlist can manipulate songs such as skipping songs, pausing, adding new songs to the queue. You can also see who added the song. To start a Jam session, the first creator must sign up for a Spotify Premium account and then send invitations to other Spotify users. Free Spotify accounts can also participate in Jam but require a shared WiFi connection.

Step 1:

At the song interface on Spotify, click on the connection icon in the bottom corner as shown and then select Start a Jam .
