Apple Music for Android, with the latest beta equal news with iOS app

iOS 16 beta previewed the new to Apple Music. It is difficult to say if those noticed by those who already use the provisional release of the upcoming Apple operating system are all or iOS 16 stable, which will arrive with the iPhone 14, will have others, but in the meantime Apple has moved forward not to be unprepared. at the time of the “therefore” also on the Android side.

For the operating system of the green robot came in beta version 4.0 of Apple Music. The news? Exactly those seen on Apple Music for iOS 16, namely:

• the ability to mark artists how favorites – just enter the artist page and touch the star at the top right. The arrival of favorites implies:
  • a new carousel Favorite artists in tab Listen now
  • you receive notices, of notificationswhen there is news on a favorite
• greater chance of customization for playlists – now the order of the songs (via the three dots at the top right, voice Sort) can be:
  • Reverse: The songs added last can be displayed first
  • sorted by:
    • artist
    • title
    • album.

With the next update, the app of Apple Music for Android will once again be on par with that for iOS in terms of functions and possibilities: the beta of the past few hours has restored the balance between the two. However, support for the aesthetic canons of Android 13 is still missing, and at this point it is unlikely that the new look for the notification player will arrive on Apple Music 4.0 stable for Android.

The news, visible above, are not the only ones. Peeking through the lines of code for their classic teardown, colleagues of 9to5google.com have come across a couple of references to Apple ClassicalL’spin-off app for the streaming of classical music that has been talked about for months – and it was thought it could arrive together with iOS 15.5 – but which has never been seen.

Those are pretty explicit lines, so there’s no question that Apple is working on it or at least working on it. Who knows the debut hasn’t been delayed to make it coincide with that of iOS 16.
