Hi Guys,

I am on the latest version of iPadOS which is 14.6 I believe yesterday the Spatial/Dolby Audio feature for Apple Music has been officially rolled out to everyone by Apple. But I still do not see it as an option to enable in my settings when I go and music ? What can I do? Can somebody please help?

I restarted my iPhone yesterday and Lossless showed up.

Okay, looks like finally I have got it working finally I see the Dolby Atmos option in my general settings in music but whenever I play a song which is Dolby Atmos enabled I’m playing the playlist in Apple Music which is specially made for Spatial Audio and even then the Dolby Atmos logo is not showing on the song that I’m playing? What does that mean?

Also for me the Dolby Atoms option is kind of playing games sometimes it shows and sometimes it doesn’t when I toggle off the use listening history option turn it on and off then again it shows up. Why is it like not staying there ?

There's another thread going about the Music app not consistently pulling the Atmos audio stream. This is in the Mac app, though. When clicking the large Play button under an album or playlist, Atmos audio will play. But a specific track from the list doesn't. Not sure if this is the behavior you're seeing as well.

No for me the Dolby Atmos toggle is not staying in Settings>Music it keeps showing and then suddenly disappearing.
I did not know that ina Spatial Audio Playlist curated by Apple only if you press the big play button the playlist only then Dolby Atmos Logo shows and play.

Same issue here, I still dont see Dolby Atmos in Settings. I dont see it in both my iPhone & iPad pro. Both have been updated to 14.6. Restarted several times. Anyone knows how to get this to show up please?!
