The latest Android beta version of Apple Music has added two major features: spatial and lossless audio.
Apple Music brings spatial audio and lossless streaming to Android
Android users testing out the Apple Music beta will be happy to hear that Apple has added support for spatial and lossless audio in the latest update. 9To5Google notes that this is only available in the beta and should roll out to stable users in the future.
If you have the beta and have updated to the latest version, you’ll find the option to use spatial listening on “compatible devices.” Apple says it already supports Dolby Atmos on thousands of songs, and has compiled a playlist of those available in the app. That should make it easier for users to find and preview the changes the system is making.
Users can head over to the Settings section, where they can check the new Audio Quality menu to change the type of audio they hear. The new options include High Efficiency, High Quality, Lossless, and High Resolution Lossless.
