Crossfade in Apple Music on iPhone

The Onkyo HF Player free version is fine if you do not have any high resolution tracks as it still has the EQ and crossfade. I agree that with all the Apple subscriptions using iOS, crossfade should be available since other app players have it.

NO.... not working. big sur crossfade not working with apple music not working in my library and the paid subscription.... it's is not transmitted to airplay anymore... I have to use my old macbook 2009 as hi fi player...

While this thread has to do with crossfade using iOS on the iPhone, you bring up an issue that some of us who are not using Big Sur may not have been aware of. I had posted one way to use iTunes on Big Sur but it was deleted but if you search around, you probably can find the app for that.

While it might not make sense, it is not iOS but the app. If you read some of my other posts, you can see that there are other apps such as Onkyo's HF Player as well as Vox (which I tried but it ran too hot and used up too much battery power). Also, Spotify on iOS has crossfade so it's not iOS necessarily.

How much longer will we ask man. Seems like we have been asking for crossfading on iphone apple music for ages. Android apple music has it, computer apple music, spotify too not to mention. Can we please get it. Lol nobody cares about any other updates done to apple music but cross fading. Please we beg.

I think that all we as Apple Music users would like is some word that this is in the works but we have yet to get any feedback from Apple. The only thing we get is announcements on new features that have little to do with what their loyal customers want.

Dear Apple….as promised three months ago, I just canceled my Apple One membership few minutes ago. I went back to Spotify where the word « crossfade » is not an obscure concept. BTW, your Apple Music app for MAC is an absolute mess. I’m glad I won’t have to force myself to like it anymore…

Apple take care of your loyal customers/users and add this functionality to iPhones. It’s criminal that android users have this functionality but iPhone users don’t! It’s was before but was taken away. I just can’t fathom why you would take better care of your android users than your iPhone iOS users 🤦🏻‍♂️

I was using a free trial of Apple Music for curated playlist creation for a client. I was actually considering a permanent switch from Spotify (which allows crossfading on iPhone) because my entire family has iPhones as well as like 85% of friends. Meaning I’m one of a handful of my circle that uses Spotify. Someone make this make sense for me. Between allowing Android users to crossfade but not iPhone users (I’m just baffled) and the crappy playlist sharing issue (Item not available??? How!?!?), I could never justify bringing my monthly money to Apple Music. This system is flawed in too many really weird ways.

Apple has just begun the process of giving us access to songs on Apple Music in Lossless & Spatial… I suspect this is a cynical ploy to attract more users/subscribers! But even though I’m grateful for access to higher quality music playback at no extra cost I have this one question for Apple…How’s about giving your up until now loyal iphone and Apple Music users what obviously more than a few of us want from iOS, THE CROSSFADING FEATURE YOU SAW FIT TO GIVE TO USERS OF YOUR BIGGEST RIVAL OS, ANDROID!!! Beats me how Apple can remain so silent about whether Crossfading WILL EVER come to iOS Apple Music with folks posting that they are willing to abandon iPhone/Apple Music because they feel so strongly about Apple giving us such an almighty slap in the face by denying us iOS Apple Music crossfading so long after giving it to the Android app users…

Not having a Mac or iPad my music listening is usually on my iPhone 12 Pro Max but switching to Apple Music on my Android tablet to use crossfading on the Android Apple Music app (I’ve made it more than clear how that makes me feel as a loyal Apple customer…). I’m hoping Apple will surprise iOS Apple Music users when iOS 15 is released in the fall, I can’t wait for the first iOS 15 Public Beta to be released next month. Apple’s seeming reluctance to give crossfading to iOS Apple Music users as well as Android users really has me scratching my head! All the best-and be well. Thorvald (aka dj_faeridust) :-))

This feature is LONG overdue. It should be available on our accounts and apply across all platforms rather than being app-dependent and restricted to the macOS version. I would like to see this and all music settings apply to the account rather than having to be set in each app.

Crossfade really is such a basic function for a music streaming service, it is quite astonishing Apple did not have it available at launch. I switched from Deezer to Apple Music six months ago, as part of an Apple One subscription. However like others, I am close switching back.

Hoy 30/07/2021, estoy transfiriendo mis listas a Apple music, me canse de esperar que se decidan colocarlo en iOS. Como amante de la creación de listas, le veía a este servicio como el ideal ya que te da mucha información de la música que escuchas, pero carece de un servicio que le brindas a otros sistemas operativos, llámese tu máximo rival Android en smartphone o Windows en Pc es muy frustrante. Dije, bueno me comprare un SAMSUNG para beneficiarme del servicio, pero tb encuentro errores en la versión, no, en el crossfade sino en la interface misma. Soy usuario de Apple Music desde el 2017 y desde entonces estoy aguardando, cuando leí que se estaba probando la función en Android, dije ALELUYA!🤩 Pero quede como payaso🤡 un año mas... Creo que la única forma que Apple se ponga en campaña de mejorar el servicio es si hay una salida masiva en la suscripción.

Entonces dejo como constancia.

Yo, como usuario fiel de Apple, con casi todo el ecosistema, iPhone, iPad, iPod y Apple wath, estoy pensando bajarme de la marca. Es más ya comencé la primeras pruebas en Android (vamos bien) inclusive pude replicar la disposición de las apps que tengo en mi iPhone. Y creo que si con este iOS 15 que llegaría, no hay mejoras en este apartado, seria la botella que colmaría el vaso, como se dice vulgarmente.

I noticed today that Apple Music was cross-fading some of my songs - not all but only some. Seems to be a new feature as I hadn't heard it do that before. I've got a Motorola One Vision running Android One so it might be only Android phones capable of this? Would seem a bit stupid though of Apple to improve their own apps on a rivals phone and yet leave their own users without the ability!
