How to Make a Spotify Blend Playlist on iPhone and Android

Apart from offering a high-quality music streaming service, Spotify also offers a slew of features that let you interact with your friends via music, and such features have helped Spotify stay strong in the competition. One such feature is called the Spotify Blend, and we’ll explain everything you need to know about it and how to make a Spotify Blend Playlist with your friends.

Since Spotify didn’t advertise this feature a lot, so we don’t blame you if you weren’t aware of it. Let’s first understand what this feature is about, and then move on to how you can use it with your friends and family.

What is Spotify Blend

We all have close friends and family members who we regularly share music with. And whenever we discover a good song, we make sure the link is in their inbox even before the song gets to the chorus part.

So, wouldn’t it be great to make a playlist with such friends, combining their favorite songs with yours, keeping it all in one place? Besides, this is a great idea for playing music on a road trip, and everyone gets to listen to the songs they like. Well, this is exactly what the company is calling Spotify Blend.

In simpler words, a Spotify Blend playlist is a collaborative playlist that you can create with your friends.

How to Make a Spotify Blend Playlist with Family and Friends

Now that we are aware of what a Spotify Blend playlist means, let’s understand how to make one with your friends or family members. There are two ways to do so and we have explained both in the following sections.

Method 1: Create a Blend Playlist on Spotify Using Search

Step 1: In the Spotify app, tap on the Search tab, and open the search bar.

Step 2: Search for ‘Blend’ and tap on the first result called the Blend genre.

Step 3: Under the ‘Made For Us’ section, tap on the ‘Create a Blend’ option.

Step 4: Tap on Invite to create a blend playlist with your friends.

Step 5: You will get a bunch of options to share the Spotify Blend link. Select an option to share the link.

Step 6: Once your friend accepts the link, you will see a blend of both of you under the Blend section. And as mentioned earlier, you can access this section by simply searching for the Blend option.

How to Create a Spotify Artist Blend

Spotify recently introduced a feature to sync your music taste with an artist, and create a Blend playlist with them. However, you cannot do it with each and every artist as only a selected few are available for the same. Here’s how you can make one.

Step 1: Open the Search tab and search for Blend.

Step 3: Once you open the link or tap on the search result, you can see the generated playlist. If you like it and want to add this to your Library, tap on the heart icon under the playlist.
