Experience a whole new level of entertainment on your road trips with the latest Spotify Jam feature for Android Auto. Originally launched back in 2023, this feature allows users to create group playlists that can be edited by everyone in the session. Now, Spotify is extending this concept to the car, making your journeys a lot less boring.
Announced during Google I/O, Spotify Jam is part of Google's efforts to improve in-car apps and make them more useful. With new media app templates for Android Auto, developers can create features that resemble phone apps but are designed for safer use while driving.
With Spotify Jam, users can start a session directly from the Spotify media screen on Android Auto and others can join by scanning a QR code with their phones. This means passengers can easily manage the music without distracting the driver or needing to touch the main display.
