Apple Music is going strong, as Apple CEO Tim Cook announced this week that the music streaming platform has 6.5 million paying subscribers and 8.5 million trial users. Users who are interested in the Android version of the Apple Music app may only have to wait a few more weeks for its release out of its current beta stage. They can also get a glimpse at what the app will look like now.

Thanks to a German technology blog called MobileGeeks.de, we have screenshots of Apple Music for Android. The translated version of the blog post showing off the coming Android version of Apple Music says that the screenshots are available “in spite of a very restrictive non-disclosure agreement.”

The most immediately noticeable feature of Apple Music for Android is the app’s adherence to material design, Google’s homegrown visual language and style. Nevertheless, the resemblances to the iOS Apple Music app are obvious.

Also notable is the inclusion of Beats 1, Apple Music’s proprietary 24/7 radio station. This would appear to calm fears that the Android version of Apple’s music app would not come with the station included.

There are unresolved issues in the beta version of the Android version of the Apple Music app, according to MobileGeeks.de. For instance, logging into an Apple account doesn’t seem to work perfectly.

Unless there’s a second phase of testing, Android users can expect the Apple Music app for their devices to roll out sometime in November, according to MobileGeeks.de.

Arc Search, one of my favorite iPhone apps, is now on Android
Screenshots of the Arc Search app on Android.

Earlier this year, Arc Search became one of my favorite iPhone apps in recent memory. It's a browser app that's wicked fast, has a very clean interface, and has an unbelievably good AI feature. Today, Arc Search's developers (The Browser Company) have announced that the app is finally coming to Android.

Starting tomorrow, October 4, you can head to the Google Play Store and download Arc Search on any Android device running Android 13 or later. The app is still in open beta, and not every feature from the iOS app is currently available. Regardless, it's still exciting to see one of this year's best iPhone apps officially land on Android.

The new iOS 18.0.1 update is expected to feature bug fixes, including one that addresses an iMessage bug. Perhaps more importantly, the adjacent iPadOS 18.0.1 update could finally provide relief to iPad users who experienced bricking issues when installing iPadOS 18.
