Apple plans to release music and podcasts as separate apps for mac
Table of contents:
Apple may be planning to release Music and Podcasts as standalone apps for Mac with the upcoming release of the macOS 10.15 update. The information, published on Twitter by developer Steve Troughton-Smith, would mean the end of iTunes as we know it today, which would be limited to device management, the traditional purchase of music and movies, and little else.
Music and Podcasts, independent on Mac?
In a tweet shared last Friday afternoon, developer Troughton-Smith says he has uncovered evidence for his claim. According to him, Apple appears to be working on a series of new UIKit-based Music , Podcasts and Books apps for MacOS. These three new applications would join the new TV app the company works on and which, announced at its latest service-focused event, will be launched next fall.
The development of these separate applications for each of these services suggests that Apple is planning to "break" the iTunes application for Mac, which is where Podcasts, movies and TV shows are currently available. And while Apple already has a standalone book app, the firm could be developing an updated version or a standalone app that includes audiobooks.
With the introduction of macOS Mojave, Apple has already laid the foundations for cross - platform applications so that the apps launched for iOS are also operational and compatible in macOS. We talk, for example, about Home , News , Voice Notes . All these applications are based on iOS applications, and with the new software that will arrive this year of 2019, more iOS applications could be brought to the Mac to replace iTunes, a software that no longer responds to traditional minimalism and ease of use. that characterizes Apple products due, precisely, to the multiplication of its services.
Regarding Troughton-Smith, it should be noted that he has already shared accurate and accurate information about Apple's future plans in the past based on indications found in the code of the current versions of the brand's operating systems.
macOS 10.15 will be presented along with iOS 13 during the next World Developer Conference (WWDC) that will start on June 3, 2019, so the wait will not be very long.
