How it works

From “let’s start a session” to the winner playing, in five steps.

1

Start or join

One person starts a new session and gets a short code. Guests join free — no app, no account, no download. Just the code, or a scan of the invite QR. Sessions run for 24 hours, then close on their own.

The host picks how to play

Connect Apple Music and full tracks play right in the browser, hands-free — that’s the recommended way to host. No Apple Music? Jukebox mode needs no account at all: guests hear previews, and the host plays each winner in whatever they already use.

3

Guests queue a track

Everyone searches the catalog and puts one song up for votes — no playlist to build, no fighting over the aux cord.

The room votes

Everyone sees everyone else’s pick and votes for a favorite. Most votes wins the round and plays next — no more debates.

5

The winner plays

The host’s screen shows what’s up next, the guest list, and an invite QR — equally at home on a laptop next to the speakers as it is on a phone in your hand.
