Aux for PC

Aux lets you build a shared playlist where everyone in the room can add songs in real time, no DJ required. Running Aux on PC which lets you manage the queue from your desktop while keeping the app open alongside other windows: perfect for hosting a party or casual hangout without fumbling through a phone.

Aux transforms how groups listen together by giving every participant a say in what plays next. The app works best when you're at a computer where you can stay signed in, monitor contributions, and adjust settings without switching devices.

How a Playlist Session Works

Hosting a playlist follows a straightforward flow:

1. You create a public or private playlist and set yourself as host
2. Invite friends by sharing the playlist link or code
3. Each guest connects and adds their own songs to the queue
4. You approve or control playback order as the host
5. Music plays continuously as the group builds the list together

Host Control at Your Desktop

As the host, Aux gives you full authority over which songs actually play. You're not beholden to a single person's choices: instead, you curate from everyone's contributions while staying at your computer. This works especially well for local network music sharing during get-togethers, where it runs the app running in one window and manage everything without leaving your seat.

Who Benefits Most

Aux serves anyone hosting social events, from large parties to small friend gatherings. If you're the person who usually picks the music or organizes hangouts, running Aux on PC lets you stay in control while your guests feel heard. Note that Spotify Premium is required to host a playlist.
