Apple Music Classical has been available on top iPhones for a while, but it is still not supported by Mac and iPad. This seems to continue – although Apple Music Classical is now available to a slew of other users in its first update as it becomes available to download on the Google Play Store.
It seems bizarre for an Apple app to be available on a Google platform before it becomes available on two of the major Apple devices, but there’s a method behind Apple’s madness – not least because the app opens to a whole new group of customers before more niche in its own ecosystem.
Android before iPad and Mac
For many, this step will not make sense, but if you think about it, it really is. iPads and Macs are people’s secondary music listening devices with most people using their phones as their primary music devices. By releasing the app on Android, Apple has opened up almost the entire phone market outside of the iPhone, with an incredible number of customers now downloading the app.
iPad and Mac users are more of a niche – while some of us use our bigger devices to listen to music, there aren’t nearly as many as phone users. It makes perfect sense for Apple to target an Android release, and it now goes along with the Apple Music app for Android users.
With any luck, this should mean that Apple users with the best Macs and iPads can expect some good news on Apple Music Classical soon – but now it seems everyone in the world has at least one device on which to run the app. executed .
