As a beta, it's still a little buggy.īlend will probably prove popular this summer, especially for road trips and other travel plans, though it has a few shortcomings. Another of us even had a crash when accessing an invitation link, and they don't look quite right across all platforms. Even when set as "public," links for Blends don't seem to work outside the two participant accounts. Sadly, I can't share any of the playlists with you as examples. My playlist generated with AP's Will Sattleberg came out mostly okay, as did another with Matt Scholtz, while Rita El Khoury and I have very little in overlapping tastes, and the results were disjointed. But if you don't share anything in musical interests, the resulting playlist feels like a hodgepodge of mismatched genres.


If you already have something in common with someone, it does a pretty decent job, with more hits than misses in choosing songs you might both like.

Playing with the feature among the AP staff, results have been mixed - pun intended.
