Four New Features Coming to Apple Music via iOS 26.4

JAKARTA - Apple is expected to release iOS 26.4 in March. The company has released its first beta version so that a number of new features that will be present in Apple Music are revealed.

In the update to the operating system (OS), Apple will add four new features to improve the user experience. Here is a row of features that will be present in Apple Music in the upcoming iOS update, launching from 9to5mac.

AI-Based Playground Playlist

The most visible main feature will be the Playlist Playground supported by Apple Intelligence. Users can later compile a playlist automatically by entering a simple text command into the application.

AI will analyze the request and suggest 25 songs that match the desired mood or genre. This feature also provides ready-made command suggestions to help users who are looking for musical inspiration.

Ambient Music widget on the Home Screen

The Ambient Music feature, which was previously only available in the Control Center, will now be available as a widget on the Home Screen. This widget is available in small and medium sizes to make it easier to quickly access mood-themed music.

Users can immediately play music for categories such as Sleep, Productivity, or Relax without having to open the application. This innovation can help users who often use music as a background for daily activities.

Adding Songs to Multiple Playlists

Apple will add a new selection button in the lower corner of the screen to help organize the user's music library. With this button, users can add one song to multiple playlists at once in one step.

This feature will be very useful for users who want to organize their favorite songs into different categories. Users no longer need to repeat the same process many times for just one song title.

Nearby Concert Information Feature

The Music app will display information about the schedule of performances through the 'Upcoming Concerts' section. This information will appear on the artist's profile to make it easier for fans to monitor the tour schedule of their favorite singers.

This feature not only displays location and time, but also provides a direct link to buy tickets. This feature will improve the function of Apple Music, from just a music streaming tool to an entertainment application with complete features.
