Make a way to see what other people close to you are listening to

[Sharkparty]

I’m always curious to what the people around me are listening to. This is why I think there should be a way to see what people are listening to. You would be able to connect to what they’re listing to and if they give permission you to can listen. And of course it could be turned off if the user doesn’t want to share what they are listening to.

Hey @Sharkparty,

Thanks for posting in the Community and welcome.

We hope you don't mind us moving your post out of the ideas section to one of our Help boards as it fits better here.

That being said, what you kindly explained is already possible within the app 🙂 Currently, you can create a Group session, available for Premium users on mobile phones and tablets. In a group session, everyone present - regardless of location - has the ability to control the music. You can read more about it in this article.

On another note, if perhaps what you meant in your idea was to have the ability to see what other users are listening to, you can also do that by using the Friend Activity feature. This is available on the desktop app. It shows you what your friends are playing, and shows your friends what you're playing. You can read more about that in this other article.

Lastly, just a friendly reminder: it’s important to make sure your idea is clear; the more detailed your feature request is, the better. If the feature you have in mind it’s different from the ones described above, feel free to repost your idea, but always follow our Idea Exchange Guidelines. Remember to check for similar ideas first.

Hope this clears things up. If you have any questions or need a hand with anything else, we're always a post away.

Cheers!
