The fact that it wasn't designed this way at launch is outright goofy; ESPECIALLY it should've been made clear in the release of Jam that it worked this way.

I had someone four states away from me sign up for the express purpose of using this feature with them, and guess what I DON'T want to do?

Listen through a phone speaker, nobody wants to do that.

i dont understand why this isnt on desktop. group sessions have been in spotify for at least a year now and theres still nothing besides third party solutions like discord for desktop users? seriously?

I agree it should've been like this at launch. Why implement a feature for all spotify users to use but don't even include the desktop app?

in case this doesn't get implemented (though that seems unlikely) or until it does - I believe you can work around this by starting/joining a Jam on mobile then opening spotify on desktop and changing which device the music is playing out of. I think it should work as long as you keep both devices connected to the internet and make sure the mobile app doesn't time out.

What even is the reason it's not available on Desktop?
Wanna listen to some songs with a couple of friends while gaming? With spotify you can't.

This seems like a HUGE oversight, I can't believe this has to be petitioned instead of shipping along the Mobile version.

 

Yes, it's pretty useful if hanging with friends over the internet and gaming, etc. It's way better than using the phone.
