    I don't like the new Music app

    As the title says, I don't like how the new Music app works on watchOS 4. On watchOS 3, I can easily play music on my car's Bluetooth speaker by tapping Now Playing complications on my watch face. It streams music from my iPhone. Now it's not possible anymore. We have two choices: Play music...

    How to shuffle songs/playlists in watchOS 4

    My new Series 3 with LTE is awesome, but I'm feeling stupid. Feel free to tell me "hey idiot, all you need to do is X" because I would deserve it! I'd like to think I'm smart but this has me befuddled; I cannot for the life of me figure out how to shuffle songs in a playlist in watchOS 4. I...

    iOS 11 - Music Volume Drop in Messages

    With the latest update, has anyone else noticed a drop in music volume whenever the Messages app is open? I notice this with Spotify and Soundcloud (I don't have any files to play on the native Music app so I haven't checked that). Anyone find a fix?

    Music sync is incredibly slow

    Hi, I just bought a new Series 3, my first watch. I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong, but it takes forever to sync just a few albums. Well over an hour!

    Mystery App?

    Does anyone know what app this is? It's featured on the MacBook Pro support page. I got all excited thinking it was an iTunes rework until I saw the Touch Bar options lol

    General There should be way to set Spotify as default music player

    The music controls in control center always defaults back to Apple Music, even though I've never opened the app. Just like setting a browser as the default one in MacOS, there should be a setting for default music player in iOS.

    iPad Anyone else struggling with Google Play Music app?

    As per title, is it just me or is something horribly wrong with Google Play Music on iOS? I strongly prefer the radio stations in Play Music over Apple Music, and thanks to having an Android phone I haven't noticed any issues on mobile. But now that I have the current gen 9.7" iPad I'm using the...

    General 24bit Audio Now Supported?

    I have a few albums in my iTunes library that have never been able to sync over to my phone or tablet, all 24bit audio ALAC files. I'd need to either get a 16bit CD quality version or convert the files to 256kb/s (which I detest doing as it defeats the purpose). Suddenly in the latest iOS 11...
