Overview
- Fan Groups launches today in Canada on iOS and Android, letting listeners create or join public communities organized around artists or genres.
- Members can post, chat with emoji reactions, and instantly play shared songs without leaving the conversation, including a music-only view and a play-all option.
- Artists can join and contribute to groups to share content and connect directly with fans.
- Basic safety controls are available, with admins able to mute members and delete messages and users able to report content or block others, according to a company spokesperson.
- Amazon says Fan Groups will roll out to the U.S. and additional international markets beginning next year after seeding initial communities in the beta.
