Apple appears to be breaking its promise to release a classical music app this year.

Apple has little time to deliver on one of the promises it made in 2021 after buying Primephonic. Specifically, in 2021, the company confirmed that it would be launching an independent classical music app coming “next year” (i.e. this 2022) and that it “combines the user interface” of the aforementioned with “additional features.” However, the year is coming to an end, and no signs of a launch are foreseen anytime soon.despite the fact that Primephonic has been unavailable to users for several months now.

While the end of 2022 is indeed a few days away, it’s unlikely that Apple will announce an independent classical music app in the coming weeks. Especially considering that iOS 16.2 will be released in the next few hours. This will also be done with news that has already been confirmed by the company. These include a new Apple Music karaoke mode and a new app that has little to do with music services. On the other hand, the firm, headed by Tim Cook, has not revealed any other details about the independent app since it confirmed the purchase of Primephonic on August 30, 2021..

The Primephonic service, however, Out of service since September 2021. due to the acquisition by Apple. Users previously registered on the platform have ceased to have access to it since last year. As compensation, the Cupertino-based company offered them 6 free months of Apple Music “with access to hundreds of thousands of classical music albums.” Primephonic, for its part, posted a statement on its website stressing that they are working on “Apple’s incredible new classical music experience.” He also warned that It will arrive “early next year”.

Apple’s classical music app launch appears to be still on

However, Apple is breaking its promise. doesn’t mean he won’t launch the long-awaited independent classical music app. In fact, over the past few months we have seen a large number of references confirming the advanced development of the application. Even the iOS 15.5 release code revealed the app’s possible official name: Apple Classical.

makrumuraIn addition, it was checked that Primephonic’s statement was updated on March 9, 2022, noting that the service will be available “next year”.. So this is another sign that we won’t see Apple’s independent classical music app until at least 2023.

In any case, Apple still has a couple of weeks to at least confirm a future release and some features. Apple Classic. Or even officially publish it on the App Store. It would not be strange, yes, to see a change of course in the project. For example, that the company is simply adding the benefits promised in the announcement to the Apple Music app itself with the new version of iOS.
