Spotify Boosts Messaging with Real-time Listening & Jam Sessions

  • Spotify introduces "Listening Activity" and "Request to Jam" features to its in-app Messages.
  • "Listening Activity" shows contacts' real-time or most recent listening, is optional, and visible only to existing connections.
  • Users can interact with shared tracks by playing, saving, or reacting with emojis.
  • "Request to Jam" allows inviting contacts to live shared listening sessions directly from Messages.
  • Free users can join Jam sessions if invited by a Premium user; sessions allow synchronized listening and chat.

Why It Matters: Spotify enhances social listening and interaction within its messaging platform.
