Listen Sync keeps nearby iPhones playing the same song at the same time — even if one friend is on Spotify and another is on Apple Music. Start a room on the host phone, share a short code or QR, and guests join over Bluetooth. Listen Sync matches the track across services and lines up every guest so the chorus hits together — in the car, at a party, or across the room. You need Spotify Premium or an Apple Music subscription on each iPhone. Music plays in Spotify or Apple Music; Listen Sync handles the matching and the timing. Features: • Host a nearby listening room with a 6-digit code • Join by code or QR • Mix Spotify and Apple Music in the same room • Automatic follow of the host’s track, play/pause, and position • Lock Screen Live Activity while a room is open Turn Bluetooth on, keep the phones nearby, and start the song on the host first.
