Hi Product Hunt š I'm Saiyam, and I built Mehfil because I kept opening a
music app to play one playlist and losing an hour to whatever the feed put in
front of me.
Mehfil (महफ़िल ā an Urdu/Hindi word for a gathering where people come together
to listen to music) does exactly one thing. You paste a playlist link, and it
plays. First song to last, on one screen. No recommendations, no thumbnail
grid, no next-video roulette.
What it does:
š§ Paste a link from YouTube, Spotify, Apple Music, JioSaavn, Gaana or Deezer
š¤ Lyrics that light up line by line as they're sung
š„ Jam ā start a room, friends join with a code, and every phone plays the
same song at the same second
šµ The Android app downloads a whole playlist and plays it with no signal
š No account needed, nothing to pay, no trackers, nothing sold
The bit I'm most pleased with is the jam sync. I started by seeking to correct
drift between phones, which was the wrong instrument ā a seek is a stutter, so
the threshold had to be loose, and 1.2s of loose is an audible flange in a room
with two phones in it. Small errors are now corrected by *speed* instead: 3% is
inaudible, and a phone 300ms out closes that in ten seconds with no break in
the sound.
Two honest things, because I would rather you hear them from me: it does not
block ads (most songs play as plain audio that carries none; the few that only
exist as video carry whatever the video carries), and the native app is
Android-only for now because Apple wants a yearly fee.
It's free and there's no paid tier waiting. I'd love to know what breaks for
you ā reply here and I'll be around all day.
