Blend is a new way for two friends to merge their musical tastes into one curated playlist made just for them. Blend will be updated daily and will grow with each user over time based on how their listening changes.

This has long been rumored but it's finally live for everyone, as a feature of Spotify's new Only You hub. Here’s how to make a Blend playlist: 1. Tap “Create Blend” in the Made For You hub on mobile. 2. Then, tap “Invite” to select a friend to blend with by sharing a single-use invitation via messages or email. (For each friend you want to blend with, you will need to generate a new invitation.) 3. Once your friend accepts the invite and joins Blend, Spotify will generate a custom tracklist for the two of you filled with songs you already love—and recommendations combining your listening preferences and tastes. 4. Plus, it’s easy to identify how each friend has influenced the track choice. Simply check the profile icons next to the track.

@chrismessina I can't find this. Assuming "everyone" doesn't include Android users?

@chrismessina @markosamuli it is available on Android too. go to the Search Menu > Made for You > Create Blend :) Its pretty neat

@chrismessina @findabhilash Nice, I've found it now! Maybe you could promote this on the home page, for example under the existing Made for (username) component?

@chrismessina @findabhilash Also, you could add this to the teaser video above as it doesn't show how to get to the hub itself.

@findabhilash @markosamuli try typing "spotify:made-for-you" into your browser if you have the native app installed.

This is what already happens with "family mix", no? This is a nice feature that allows you to pick the friend whom you want to "blend" with.
