Song requests without an app: join directly in the browser
Guests should be able to request music without installing anything. mixody runs in the browser and makes joining easy with a QR code or party code.
Why app-free requests get more participation
The fewer barriers between a guest and a request, the more likely spontaneous participation becomes.
- No app installation needed for guests.
- Participation works directly in the smartphone browser.
- Requests and votes still stay organized in the mix.
Why app requirements slow down song requests
Many guests want to request one song quickly, but do not want to install another app or create an account.
Downloads take time and feel too heavy for quick participation.
Accounts and permissions slow down guests who only want to join briefly.
When the barrier is high, requests go back to shouting or chat messages.
