Listeners will soon be able to bring collaborative playlists directly into their vehicles, as Spotify is launching a new Android Auto app that integrates its “Jam” feature.

Announced at Google I/O, the updated Spotify experience for Android Auto utilizes google’s “Car App Library,” offering increased flexibility in app growth for both Android Auto and android Automotive OS.

The most notable addition to Spotify on Android Auto will be support for “Jam.”

By scanning a QR code, anyone can add songs to the playlist being played from a friend’s smartphone. This functionality will soon extend to Android Auto, with a “jam” button in the Now Playing interface that generates a QR code. The car’s display will also show participants in the “Jam” session, with options to remove users if necessary.
