After a bit of a wait,Apple Music Classicalis now available forAndroid phones. We knew it was coming – wereportedon code in anAppleMusic beta back in early 2022 – but I didn’t think it would take quite so long to arrive. And it’s interesting that Apple has made it available forAndroidbefore bringing it to theiPador theMac, presumably because the Primephonic service Apple bought to make its classical app already had an Android version.
As with theiPhoneversion, the Apple Music Classical is its own app rather than a tab in Apple Music. It streams at up to 24-bit/192kHz lossless audio, it’s ad-free, and it’s free to anyone with an Apple Music subscription (but not Apple Music Voice) or Apple One. If you have compatible headphones you can also access some tracks in spatial audio.
Apple Music Classical isn’t quite finished on Apple kit
While Apple has been busy with Android there are still a few bits missing from the Apple Music Classical wish list on Apple devices. There’s noiPad-optimised app yet, and unlike Apple Music the Classical app doesn’t yet integrate withCarPlay. There isn’t a desktop app for the Mac either.
The app is available now and requires Android 9 or later.
