This is a new feature that we're quietly testing out. It's available for iOS only, and you're welcome to give it a try. It will introduce a confirmation step when you're starting music after over 15 minutes of your system being silent. The idea is that you can pick what you want to play, and immediately confirm which room or rooms you want to play in. This way, there's less music started in the wrong room or group. Let us know what you think if you try it out!

Building community is like building a garden. You build the frame, till the ground, plant the seeds, feed the plants & sometimes you gotta pull the weeds.
