Abstract
A server system stores a list of trusted users that are authorized to access a first electronic device's shared listening sessions. While the first electronic device is hosting a shared listening session playing back media on a second electronic device, the server system receives, from a third electronic device, a request that includes an identifier of the second electronic device. In response to the first request and in accordance with a determination that the third electronic device is associated with a user that is on the list of trusted users, the server system automatically transmits, to the third electronic device, a session identifier for the first shared listening session. The server system receives, from the third electronic device, a request to join the shared listening session, in response to the second request, provides, to the third electronic device, access to control media playback of the first listening session.
