Steps
Open the Spotify app and go to Your Library. Tap Playlists to see the lists you own or follow.
Tap the playlist you want to share. If it is new, create one first with the plus button and give it a name.
Tap the three-dot menu at the top of the playlist and choose Make collaborative. A small people icon appears to show it is shared.
Tap the three-dot menu again and pick Share, then Copy link or send it through WhatsApp or Messages.
To add a song yourself, tap the search icon, type the track name and artist, and open the result.
Tap the three-dot menu next to the song and choose Add to playlist, then pick your collaborative list.
Ask each friend to open your link, tap Follow, then add songs the same way. Their picks appear for everyone.
Tips and common mistakes
Only the playlist owner can switch collaboration on or off, so ask them if the option is missing.
Anyone with the link can add songs, so share it only with people you trust.
Removing a song is the same as adding it: open the track menu and choose Remove from this playlist.
