Provided is a method for implementing synchronous playing. The method is applied to a terminal, and includes: determining a first difference value between system time of each mobile terminal and system time of the present terminal respectively; determining the complexity and playing delay of a playing file which can be processed by each mobile terminal respectively; determining, according to the complexity of the playing file which can be processed by each mobile terminal, the complexity of a file to be played; and sending, according to the first difference value and playing delay corresponding to each mobile terminal which can process the determined complexity, the file to be played to the mobile terminal which can process the complexity of the file to be played.
