How To Create A Spotify's Collaborative Playlist

With Collaborative playlists in Spotify, you and your friends can work on the same playlist for everyone without coming together.

So no one has to come to another person’s house to curate the list of songs. Everyone can use whatever device they want, like a smartphone, a PC, or a tablet to add, rearrange, or delete items, from the comfort of their home.

The best part is, you do not need to be a Premium subscriber to take part in a Collaborative Playlist. They are on both Spotify Premium and Spotify Free. There is a difference though, free users cannot edit anything from their mobile devices; they need a PC for that.

Please note that subscribers of the free plan cannot skip ahead and choose what they want to listen to, it is either paying the subscription fee or shuffle-playing.
