Back in 2021 , Apple introduced theApple Music Voice Planas a cheap entrance into the music streaming service . This $ 5 plan forced users to apply Siri to access Apple Music . It ’s restrictive but sleazy , and if you were n’t the type to discharge up the Apple Music app and peruse its contents , it was the perfect program , offering full access to the Apple Music program library .
Two year subsequently , the Apple Music Voice Plan has met its dying . As first report byMacMagazine(a Brazilian site in Portuguese ) , Apple has polish off quotation to the Voice Plan from itsApple Music website . Now , the only plans available are the Student ( $ 5.99/£5.99 monthly ) , Individual ( $ 10.99/£10.99 monthly ) , and Family ( $ 16.99/£16.99 monthly ) plans . Apple Music is also included inApple Oneplans , which late received their own price raise .
Apple has post asupport papers regarding the cancelation of the Voice Plan , stating that the company is , “ focused on delivering the best , most robust music experience potential for our client , ” and that , “ All Apple Music plans already do work seamlessly with Siri , and we will keep on to optimize this experience . ”
The Voice Plan seemed like a good approximation when it was introduce . Not only was it a trashy manner to get Apple Music , but it seemed suited for Apple ’s HomePod , HomePod miniskirt , Apple Watch , and CarPlay . It also seemed like a fit for the approaching Apple Vision Pro . But the Voice Plan has many restrictions , such as no Dolby sound recording livelihood , it did n’t display lyrics , and it had to be always connected to the cyberspace .
Apple does n’t release indorser numbers racket and datum , so no one outside of Apple knows how many people used the Voice Plan . But since Apple break it , likely there were n’t many . To get at the design , you call for a Siri - enable machine to use it — HomePod , AirPods , iPhone , etc.—soAndroid phonesandWindows PCswere out of the enquiry .
