Aux Control is a party music jukebox for bars, cafes, and events. The host runs the iOS app on their iPhone, which connects to Apple Music and starts a room. Guests join by scanning a QR code or entering a room code at auxcontrol.live in any browser — no app download required. Guests set a screen name and vote on which song plays next. The host controls playback and manages the guest list. BUILT FOR REAL PARTIES • Works best with 5+ people — house parties, bars, weddings, DJs fielding requests, all of it • Sessions self-destruct after 24 hours — zero cleanup • Skip is host-first, always — you're never at the mercy of the crowd • Kick a guest, yeet a queued track, or seed the first song yourself before votes even start • Turn voting off for a simple first-come, first-served queue — great for smaller crews who'd rather skip the ballot PARTY PASS Free sessions cap at 8 people. Party Pass is an auto-renewing annual subscription that bumps the cap to 150 guests — built for the bigger stuff: weddings, blowouts, hosts running it all year. Renews automatically each year unless you cancel at least 24 hours before renewal; manage or cancel anytime in Settings > Apple ID > Subscriptions.
