Apple Music now has a much smarter way of handling alternate album versions – one it has belatedly copied from the original Beats service.
Previously, if there was more than one version of an album, they each appeared on the artist page, which made for a cluttered and confusing experience…
But MacStories‘ Federico Viticci spotted that Apple now does what Beats used to.
Alternate versions are now hidden by default from Artist pages. You’ll only see the alternates once you tap on the album cover, which is a much neater way to do it.
This section collects remasters, reissues, remixes, demos, deluxe editions, and explicit/clean versions of the same album.
It’s not the first time Apple Music has belatedly copied a feature from Beats. Back in 2018, the streaming music service finally separated albums from singles and EPs on an artist’s page.
Apple Music yesterday started letting you see your most-played music so far this year.
