Apple’s music and TV apps for Windows have finally arrived. With preview builds found on Windows 11 devices in the Microsoft Store. These apps have finally arrived at the Microsoft Store, three months after Microsoft first announced their appearance. The Apple Music and Apple TV apps for Windows, as well as a third Apple Devices app for Windows 11, are now available for download as preview versions. Apple’s big news in terms of apps Apple divided the functionality of the platform between four apps in macOS starting in 2019. By then, it had already discontinued its iTunes music player for macOS. Until now, however, iTunes was the only option for Windows users who had sizable local media libraries, needed to back up their iDevices, or wanted to subscribe to Apple Music. It has received modest changes to maintain compatibility with Apple Music, but finally Apple users will be able to switch to Apple Music without having to do any more capering. The Apple Music and Apple TV apps offer access to the Apple Music and Apple TV+ subscription services, as well as management of iTunes music and video features, just like in macOS. The TV app is identical to the one in macOS. But instead of tabs at the top, the various parts are accessed via a list on the side. According to Apple, at the moment the apps are only in a “preview” version. Therefore, not all features will work as expected. The version of Windows 11 required is a specific one. On the other hand, you will use the Apple Devices app to make local backup copies of the device, perform emergency software updates, sync local media and the rest of the actions that you can carry out with a device iOS connected to your computer. Please note that Windows 11 version 22621 or later is required for all three new Apple apps. If you want to download any of these apps, Apple warns that doing so will prohibit iTunes for Windows from opening, so you’ll need to use the new apps instead. >
