- No one can hog the playlist
- The good stuff gets played
- The bad stuff disappears!
Create a party and share with your guests. They can now use their phone (without needing Spotify or an app) to make requests from the millions of tracks available on Spotify, vote for the songs they like and veto the songs they hate.
The Jukestar jukebox will automatically distribute the songs in the playlist based on who requested what, when they requested it and what other guests think of the songs in the jukebox.
Features:
- Guests can request from the millions of tracks available on Spotify using their phone (without needing Spotify or an app)
- Guests can upvote or veto any of the songs in the playlist
- The upcoming queue is distributed and updated automatically
- Guest requests will be spread out in the queue so everyone’s music gets played
- The more guests upvote someone's song, the sooner it will be played
- The more guests veto someone's song, the further it will move down the queue
- When enough guests veto a song, it disappears from the queue
- As a host, you can overrule any song
- As a host, you can force any song to play next
The host app requires a Spotify Premium account (a 30 day free trial is available from Spotify).
Guests do not need a Spotify account and can use any phone, tablet or desktop device via the Jukestar webapp: https://jukestar.mobi/webapp

Love it except one important thing

Love the app, but the host playlist to play when nothing is playing won’t ever work.
Won’t play from playlist and won’t play on Sonos

Same issue. When que ends nothing plays. Also lab to force people to play from playlist doesn’t work even with 100+ song playlist. Also can this app be played through Sonos system?
Great start but needs a few more things
Shane AKA Glowstick
It is a great start to this app, used it multiple times for a few BBQ’s at my house. Needed to preload the party queue myself with songs the days before in order to have constant music playing. The preload a playlist idea when no music is playing has not worked. Would also like to see a Apple car play option as this would be a great idea for road trips with friends. Would need to keep the driver in mind as he would not be able to select songs from his phone to play. So maybe have a song rotate in from his set playlist every rotation between everything else being played by others?
Fun app

Great app. Worked great at our party. Gave 3 stars because the auto play of silent feature does not work. If that gets fixed it’s a 5 star app.
Can’t login, session expires immediately

I played around with this app for hours and couldn’t login to an iPhone or iPad. Don’t waste your time like I did!
Great idea! I was planning on making an app like this!!!

Setup was easy and I like the web app option as well. The only thing that would make this better would be if it allowed you to select different playback devices so I can use it with my sonos speakers without an aux cable.
Used to be great, now just trying to rob you

This used to be a great fun way to play music with friends during a party. However, they recently updated everything so now you have to pay to get “votes” or to request songs. They also force you to download the app now instead of accessing a website. What’s worse, you have to download two separate apps if you want to host a party and be able to add songs to your own party! Totally takes advantage of the user and makes a very annoying experience for our party guests. We’re moving to a new app.
Great Concept!

Great Concept! Here's a small thought. Can we cross fade in between tracks for a better DJ experience?... maybe even beat match of some sort like the Serato Pryo App! That would be cool! Either way! Great start!!!
Every household and office needs this app

Making playlists (for the office or my home) was a PITA until a coworker turned me onto Jukestar.
Forget making playlists

Crowdsource your party playlists and put the power of a jukebox in your attendees hands. Only recommendation is to allow for fade out/in of songs. Great app for anyone who hosts parties.
