Apple Classical seems to be up and running in the near future. The company’s streaming service for classical music.

In the beta for iOS 15.5, a bunch of references to “Apple Classical” will appear, which is said to be Apple’s upcoming music streaming service for classical music. Among other things, we see the text lines “Open in Apple Classical” and “Open this in the new app designed for classical music” in the code for the Music app.

Apple bought the music streaming service Primephonic, which specializes in classical music, in August last year and at the same time said that they were working on a new experience for streaming classical music. We still do not know exactly when the app may come, but it is not entirely impossible that it will now come in our equally lossless and spatial sound for Apple Music last year.
