What is Auto DJ?

When Auto DJ is enabled, the songs you had set up in the playlist will play in a continuous queue, from first to last without interruption.

What is the difference between the Console view and the Playlist view?

The console view gives you full control over the volumes of the songs you've added, and allows you to play two songs simultaneously (you'll be able to see it once you've uploaded a track).

The playlist view is a simpler interface and does not allow mixing. However you can use the Auto DJ function to start playing your list of songs without interruptions.

How can I remove tracks from the Playlist section of the Spreaker Studio for mobile app?

To remove a track from the Playlist, tap the "+" at the top, next to the Auto DJ button. Then, swipe the track you want to delete either to the left or right. At the new message: Want to remove this? simply tap on OK.
