Apple Music: Five features coming this year
Apple showed a lot of nice news about iOS 17 during WWDC 2023. During the presentation, a look was also taken at the new functions that Apple Music will receive this year. We’ve put together five new features for Apple Music for you.
1. Crossfade: No more silence between songs
If you have Spotify, you probably already know this function (or use Apple Music on your Mac), but now Apple Music on the iPhone and iPad will also get the function. This allows you to slowly blend two songs into each other. Is one song almost over? Then slowly but surely the next song is played. This ensures that there are never more silences between songs.
One of the most requested features is finally coming to Apple Music. This allows you to create and edit a playlist together with your friends. This way you and your friends can make a cool playlist together and add more and more new songs to it.
Also nice: when one of your friends adds a song to the playlist, you will see their profile picture with the song. This way you always know which of your best mates puts those rather ‘strange’ songs in the list.
CarPlay has also received a number of new features in iOS 17. And one of them has to do with Apple Music. One of the most notable new features of CarPlay is that SharePlay will soon be supported. This allows anyone to control the music in the car from their own phone, even if they don’t have Apple Music.
4. Apple Music gets even more karaoke features
Do you also like Apple Music Sing? Then go practice your singing skills again. The karaoke function in Apple Music is getting another cool feature. Soon you will be able to see yourself blaring along with all those wonderful sing-along songs. You can then use your iPhone or iPad as a kind of camera and connect it to your Mac or Apple TV 4K. This will make your karaoke parties even more fun!
5. Various updates to Apple Music’s appearance
Apple is also going to make some changes to the look of Apple Music. The music player now shows full screen animations (if an album supports it). Furthermore, the mini player continues to ‘float’ above the rest of the app and adjustments have been made to the font here and there.
