Where The Follow Action Appears
For users who are not the playlist owner, BeatPass shows:- Follow and Following on the playlist page.
- Follow and Unfollow in the playlist context menu.
What Following Does
- Saves the playlist to your account so you can find it again quickly.
- Keeps you on the original playlist rather than creating a duplicate.
Whether a followed playlist appears in your Library → Playlists list depends on how BeatPass attaches the relationship to your account. Not all followed playlists are guaranteed to show up in that view.
What Following Does Not Do
- It does not let ordinary followers add or remove tracks.
- It does not let ordinary followers rename the playlist or change its settings.
- It does not provide a dedicated playlist-update notification feed.
Unfollowing
Normal unfollowing:- Open the playlist or its context menu.
- Use Following or Unfollow.
- BeatPass removes the saved relationship.
Special Case: Collaborative Editors
If you are an accepted collaborator:- The playlist can show the Following state.
- Unfollowing uses a confirmation flow because you are leaving the collaboration.
- Confirming removes your editor access — not just a follow relationship.
