Abstract

A method for playing multimedia content between devices includes a first device that receives first playback information from a second device, where the first playback information corresponds to first multimedia content played by the second device, and the first device and the second device are located in the same wireless network. The first device displays a first playback control card corresponding to the first multimedia content, where the first playback control card includes a first control and a second control, and the second control controls playback of the first multimedia content. In response to a first user input performed on the first control, the first device obtains the first multimedia content from a server based on the first playback information, and takes over the playing of the first multimedia content based on the first playback information.
