Inspiration

Smartphone... so quiet... maybe many will be better...

What it does

The music curator creates a room, and audience members can join the room. The music curator can play songs through Spotify, and the audience members' phones will play the songs simultaneously.

How I built it

A Django web server for the backend; Android for the front-end; Spotify API for the content.

Challenges I ran into

It is extremely difficult to sync the song position across the different devices.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

Creating an app to facilitate the sharing of music and ideas.

What I learned

How to develop on Android; how to make a backend; how inconsistent performance across devices is.

What's next for Amplify

Refined syncing algorithms; chatroom ability; ability to switch music curators; a lot more!
