iOS 15.5 to re-introduce the Apple Music API for third-party applications

Technology giant Apple, which has disabled the ability to change playback speeds in third-party applications using the Apple Music API and its iOS 15.4 content, has now decided to reintroduce this feature with iOS 15.5.

The word comes from Apple developer Joe Kuhn, who went to Apple’s developer forums to announce that Apple has reassessed its “previous decision to disable the change in playback speed for Apple Music subscription content in third-party applications” and concluded that they “can safely activate this functionality again, just like before the release of iOS 15.4”, reports GSMArena.

“As such, this problem is fixed in iOS 15.5 beta 4,” said Kuhn.

Apple has not revealed the reason for disabling the playback speed control feature for third-party applications, but according to Kun’s publication, it is safe to say that the feature was disabled due to a bug that has now been fixed.

iOS 15.5 is still in beta, so those on the stable channel will have to wait to start adjusting playback speed in third-party applications using the Apple Music API.
