However , thanks to the launching of the iOS 17 developer beta released shortly after the keynote gives us a salutary idea of the Apple Music revamp . First up , the app reintroduces a feature that had been removed from the iOS app , but lived on within the Android rendering of the app .
As noted byMacRumors , the young Apple Music app will include a Crossfade feature of speech to “ smoothly transition between tracks so the music never stops . ”
Beyond this , Apple has also mentioned that collaborative play list are head to the app , with a Game Night play list one deterrent example . Elsewhere , Apple Music SharePlay is getting a big rise too , enabling all rider in the car to have a say in ascertain the music through CarPlay .
As explained during WWDC , if Apple Music is running on a phone through the CarPlay interface , then other passengers will be able-bodied to join the school term through a pushing notification .
It ’s not quite clear how this will work , but it may be due to the passengers being contacts in each other ’s phonebook or to with all of those phone travelling in closemouthed proximity to each other at incisively the same speed . Either way it ’ll be a more democratic mean of take the tune on the road tripper .
Elsewhere there are some drug user user interface changes that admit a full - screen animated nontextual matter , akin to what we see from Spotify . The liveliness also fade neatly into the playback controls .
