Music on the app is set to include more data, such as a wider list of credits for artists — such as their roles and the instruments they play.

Apple Music Sing will also introduce its Continuity Camera, meaning users will be able see themselves onscreen while doing karaoke — and even apply camera filters as they sing along to the lyrics.

The app is planned to adapt users experience with SharePlay as when users are in a car and listening, other trusted iPhone devices will automatically suggest joining the session.

Listeners in the vehicle can control the music from their own devices, even if they don’t have an Apple Music subscription.
