User expresses frustration that new features and bug fixes for Apple Music are tied to major iOS software updates, making the process slow and infrequent. They wish Apple Music could update independently like other apps.
Don’t get me wrong, I absolutely LOVE iOS 26 and the sick features it brought to my favorite music streaming platform, Apple Music. But I just simply don’t understand why we have to wait for a whole fucking software update to get new features and even get bugs fixed in this platform. It makes NO sense to me why Apple has to do this, instead of treating it like a regular app. I know AM is of course affiliated with Apple (even as a whole tech corporation), but I don’t like waiting for software updates on my phone for an app to be fixed. (And Apple doesn’t do regular updates on their devices so that makes it worse!) As much as I love AM, it isn’t perfect and has tons of stupid bugs itself too (especially after iOS 26) which Apple should prioritize a lot. It’s frustrating. Not sure if many people on this sub already said this, but I felt like pointing this out anyway because I’m not that active here.
