DopaBeat Guide
One Song, Every Phone: Listening Together in Porto
Quick answer
DopaBeat is the simplest way for people in Porto to share one live soundtrack — one host DJs, everyone else joins in seconds and shapes the queue, and every listener hears the same moment of the same song.
Porto is known for São João night, when the whole city parties with plastic hammers — and underneath all of it, people gathering around something shared. DopaBeat gives those gatherings a live soundtrack everyone can shape: one synced queue, one DJ, every phone in Porto hearing the same beat.
Same room or across Porto — one synced session
Some nights the group is on one couch in Porto; 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.
How people in Porto get into a session
The host in Porto shares one small thing — a code or a QR — and the whole group is in. App users scan; browser users click. Within seconds every guest has the same search box, the same queue, and the same vote as everyone else.
A queue the whole group writes
Instead of passing one phone around a room in Porto, everyone works from their own. Requests flow into a single queue, votes rank them, and the session's direction emerges from the group in real time — no shouting across the room required.
Getting set up in Porto
It takes less time to start than to explain: create a party, show the QR or text the link, and friends in Porto join from the app or a browser. From there the group builds the queue and DopaBeat keeps every listener on the same beat.
