Step 5: Have friends scan the Spotify code or invite them via text message.

The Spotify QR code is found in a brown rectangle at the bottom of the session; scanning it will add a user to the session. The other way to add friends to the session is to tap "Invite friends" to share the URL to the group session over text message. You won't get a notification when someone joins your group session, but you can see if anyone is in your group session at anytime by tapping the computer and speaker icon in the bottom right hand corner of your screen.
