How Does Family Mix Work?

I'm currently trying to this works myself. I got everyone on my Premium Family plan to join the Mix, and songs were added as expected. But there's only 50? Does this playlist get updated regularly or expand as it's played?

Seems that it indeed consists of 50 songs that are regularly updated according to what your family members are listening to.

Hi @ian_howe, 

If you want to read more on Family Mix, I'd recommend this Support article. 

Have a nice day!

The support article is nice and all but it doesn’t answer what the OP is asking.

Hi @AeroZ, 

In the article is stated that: "It comes preloaded with genres, artists, and songs you’ve all played on your own, and updates the more you play."

It's also possible to manage who’s music taste Family Mix is based on and you can choose CHILL and UPBEAT, which should change the playlist as well. 

I just added a link to complete your reply, in case the user wants to find more information on this topic 🙂

But is it limited to 50 tracks?

Would be nice to get that info added to the support article as well 🙂
