DopaBeat Guide
How Friends in Darwin Listen to Music Together
Quick answer
To listen to music together in Darwin, start a party in DopaBeat: friends join with a code, QR, or web link, everyone adds and votes on songs, and playback stays perfectly in sync on every phone and browser. It's free on iOS and Android.
Being known for dry-season deck parties under tropical skies means Darwin understands shared experiences. DopaBeat brings that to music: friends join a party with a QR scan or web link, add songs from a huge catalog, and listen in perfect sync whether they're side by side or across town.
Together in Darwin, even when you're apart
Some nights the group is on one couch in Darwin; other nights it's three homes and a train ride apart. DopaBeat covers both — a speaker carries the sound when you're together, and the synced web listen link carries it when you're not.
Joining is a five-second job
Whether your friends in Darwin are app people or browser people, entry is instant. The web listen link is the great equalizer: no download, no sign-up, straight into the session with full ability to hear the queue live.
Everyone in Darwin gets a say

Who keeps the session organized in a Darwin group?
