Can you share a sample link that is not working so I can take a look?

I’m adding it to my to-do list for future updates!

There are actually two types of singles: standalone releases (shown in the Singles section on Apple Music) and pre-release tracks from upcoming albums. MusicHarbor should show both in the Released section (just make sure singles are enabled for your feed).

Today I’m rolling out a new version of Play with upgraded AI Assistant features:

- Concise, detailed, and simplified video summaries
- Ask any questions about the video
- Progress indicator for AI requests
- Better context handling for longer videos

Yes, there is! On the iPhone you can scroll down in the information section and tap the “Add Notes” button to add notes while watching.

If it’s shown on her artist page but not in the feed, then it’s usually a filter in Settings > Filter Releases that’s hiding it from the feed.

Play already supports that in Settings > General > Shake to Watch, or via the Quick Actions menu in Settings > Start Screen > View Quick Actions. You can also tap and hold playlists and smart search to reveal a “Play Random New” button.

The redesigned artist profile is now live in MusicHarbor! apps.apple.com/us/app/music...

I’ve also updated my press kits with iOS and iPadOS 26 screenshots, and beta versions are available on TestFlight.

Now that my iOS 26 updates are mostly ready, I took some time to summarize everything new and share my experiences integrating Liquid Glass and Apple Intelligence:

Yes, that section is dedicated to artists with albums/songs you have not listened to yet.

The new video details layout is also available on macOS, which will be great for organizing and taking notes on the WWDC sessions coming out next week.

I’ve also added the ability to setup Channels Inbox filters using multiple keywords. This lets us include or exclude topics based on the video title and description, either globally for all videos or individually by channel.

Search had been bugging me for a while too. I rewrote it to find items across the entire app, not just the currently selected list, and it’s now faster and more efficient than ever. The new architecture is also flexible enough to support advanced features in the future, like natural language search.

Taking some time before next week’s announcements to clean up a few things in Play:

The video details view now has dedicated tabs for each section. It’s now easier to switch between attributes, chapters, transcript, recommendations, and actions.

I was having this issue where the Mail app showed an incorrect badge, but I hadn’t stop to look into it. It turns out there’s a new setting under Notifications → Mail → Customize Notifications to only counts unread messages marked as “Primary”

I haven’t checked “Shared With You” in a while, but I believe it only works with content shared from the app—so it would only apply if I set up a custom URL scheme for Play and users shared content through that scheme.

The main view doesn’t support drag and drop, but you can drop items into lists like "New" or any specific tag.

For the playback speed on macOS, the available options are the built-in speed control in the player itself, the Shift+< and Shift+> keyboard shortcuts, or the global setting found in Settings → Player.

Thanks! Play is only available via the App Store, so I don’t think it is possible to install it via Homebrew.

Some YouTube creators are so great, we never miss a new video. For those, Play will soon let you automatically add their new uploads to the watch later queue!

This one new feature belongs in Apple Music, TV, Books, and more There’s no shortage of music-focused apps on the App Store, but one that’s long stood out among my favorites is MusicHarbor. Now, as part of a big version 5.0 update, the app supports a feature that Apple Music should have added years ago: news integration. Here’s why I think Apple News integration would be a perfect addition to not only the Music app but also TV, Books, and more. more…
