Want a song playing for everyone in your IMVU room? You don't need any software, downloads, or audio cables. A music bot does it all for you. Here's the whole thing, step by step, in plain English.
Invite a music bot to your room. Then anyone types !add and a song name, and it plays from YouTube or Spotify. Setup takes about a minute.

Yes. You set everything up from your phone, and you add songs just by typing in chat. So you can run the whole thing one-handed. Works on phone and PC.
Quick questions
Can I play YouTube songs in IMVU?
Yes. The bot grabs the song from YouTube (and Spotify) and plays it through your room's radio.
Do I have to own the room?
For public rooms, the owner or a mod sets it up. For private rooms, you just invite the bot in IMVU.
Can other people add songs too?
Yes. Anyone can use !add. Mods keep control with skip and stop.
Is there a free way?
IMVU's radio can play an audio link, but keeping any song you ask for playing 24/7 is what the bot handles. See the Music Bot page for pricing and the money-back guarantee.
