“Apple Music and Siri are natural partners and already work
seamlessly together,” said Oliver Schusser, Apple’s vice president
of Apple Music and Beats. “With Siri actively used on hundreds of
millions of devices worldwide, we are thrilled to add this new plan
that delivers an effortless music experience just by using your
voice and makes Apple Music accessible to even more people around
the world.”
Users can subscribe to the Apple Music Voice Plan through Siri
by saying “Hey Siri, start my Apple Music Voice trial,” or by
signing up through the Apple Music app. Once subscribed to the
Apple Music Voice Plan, users can request music be played across
all of their Siri-enabled devices, including HomePod mini®,
AirPods®, iPhone®, or any other Apple device, and when using
CarPlay®.
Apple Music is also adding hundreds of new mood and activity
playlists created by Apple Music’s editorial experts that are fully
optimized just for voice. Subscribers can ask Siri to “Play the
dinner party playlist,” “Play something chill,” or even “Play more
like this” for a truly personalized music experience. These new
playlists are available to every subscriber of any Apple Music plan
— and make using Apple Music, together with Siri, even better.
Subscribers to the Apple Music Voice Plan will also have access to
Apple Music’s entire lineup of playlists, including favorites like
New Music Daily, Rap Life, Today’s Hits, Today’s Country, A-List
Pop, R&B Now, and more.
The Apple Music Voice Plan will be available later this fall in
17 countries and regions, including Australia, Austria, Canada,
China, France, Germany, Hong Kong, India, Ireland, Italy, Japan,
Mexico, New Zealand, Spain, Taiwan, the United Kingdom, and the
United States.
Apple Music Voice Plan subscribers will get a customized in-app
experience with suggestions based on the listener’s music
preferences and a queue of recently played music through Siri.
Within the app there will also be a dedicated section called “Just
Ask Siri” where subscribers can learn tips to optimize Siri for
Apple Music.
For access to Apple Music’s premium offerings, including Spatial
Audio and Lossless Audio, Lyrics, Music Videos, and more,
subscribers can easily switch to Apple Music’s individual plan for
$9.99 per month or family plan with up to six accounts for $14.99
per month at any time.
