Users and friends can now add, reorder, and remove songs on one combined playlist. This feature makes road trips, house parties, and traveling with friends that much easier. Users no longer have to switch from one playlist to another or from phone to phone to play the songs they want.
Once you have a playlist created on Apple Music, it is quick and simple to add collaborators. To add friends to your playlist, simply open Apple Music, and tap the Library button at the bottom of your screen.
Select the playlist you want your friends to collaborate on, tap the three dots on the top right of the screen, and hit Collaborate. Once you hit the Collaborate button, a link will be created to send to friends and family via Airdrop, Messages, Shareplay, and more.
