Yes. It's the distance between your location and the other person's location that is calculated this way.

The Listen Together feature of the NetEase Cloud Music App will only show the distance between two people, not the exact location. Note that this is only the approximate distance, the other party can not see the detailed address information, so you do not have to worry about privacy issues. If you don't want the other person to see even this distance, just turn off the location privileges of NetEase Cloud Music.

The software doesn't have positioning permissions, so it can't access your phone's location information, and naturally it won't show you how far away you are from each other. In addition, in addition to the distance between the two people, the NetEase Cloud Music App Listen Together feature will show how many minutes you've been listening together.
