OutLoud Social Jukebox

Use it every time! But wish we could pick multiple songs before it kicked us out. Otherwise great app

I’m hosting a company lunch for a bunch of people working from home and thought it would be cool to let people pick the music. I downloaded the app, created a playlist, shared the URL, but when you open it in a browser, there is no ability to play the music. You can vote all you want, but the website will not play. Then I thought, well I guess I’ll have to have everyone install an app on their phone. I tried that, but when we go to join playlist, it says there are none “nearby”. I guess this might work for a small group in a car or something, but not much else. Doesn’t make sense since a small group in a car could just talk about what to play next.

Are use this app for the family so that the wife and kids and guests can all suggest songs and add them to the playlist while we are hosting a party or just hanging out at the swimming pool. I do have a feature request: I have one iOS device inside the house that has excellent Wi-Fi and my device I carry with me out by the pool where sometimes the Wi-Fi is sketchy. I host the OutLoud playlist on the iOS device in the house, so it would be very nice if my phone that is logged in with the same account could have administrative control of the playlist that’s running on the other iOS device. I like the idea of others only been able to add one song at a time, but I would like to add multiple songs at a time from my secondary device that I carry with me as well as the device actually playing the music inside the house.
