App Profile: Jup Music Queue

Are you tired of people bombarding you with song requests while you’re on aux?

Are you tired of the person on aux not appreciating your top notch song recommendations?

Jup is an iOS app made to facilitate group participation within a music queue, allowing individuals to choose songs that will be directly added to the host’s active queue.

The ‘host’ is able to choose to have their queue playing either on Apple Music or Spotify. The app will then function to use the music player of the selected service. Either service requires the host to have an active subscription with either service. The host can open up the queue via Bluetooth for nearby ‘participants’ to join.

Participants, upon joining a queue, may add songs by searching either the Apple Music or Spotify music catalog regardless of having a subscription or account. Participants, upon signing in to a given music service, will also be able to access their personal playlists with that service to add songs from.

Participants get a say in what songs are played next, via the ‘voting’ feature. Songs with the most votes get pushed to the top of the queue. The host can intervene by placing the queue in ‘host control’, where voting is disabled and the host can rearrange the queue if needed.
