How to Create Epic Shared Playlists Across Spotify and SoundCloud with Flo

While music streaming services like Spotify offer tons of features, cross-platform playlist creation isn't one of them. Many users overlook this gap—especially when friends use different apps. 4 Ways You're Using Spotify Wrong highlights common pitfalls, and if you're switching services, this guide shows how to move your playlists safely.

Flo solves this by letting you build a 'mega playlist' that pulls tracks from multiple sources. This free app connects you and your friends to create a shared 'Flo' of tunes. Once set up, anyone can add songs, keeping the vibe alive—all via the same Wi-Fi or the host's access point.

Designed for parties, Flo offers two modes: 'One Speaker' for playing through the host's device to a great speaker, or 'Shared Music' where every phone plays simultaneously for a surround-sound effect.

Flo currently supports only Spotify (Premium required) and SoundCloud (is SoundCloud Go worth it?). It's iPhone-only for now, with an Android version in development.

Despite these limits, Flo is an innovative tool with huge potential as it evolves.
