Apple Classical

Apple has acquired the classical music streaming service Primephonic in 2021 with a promise to integrate it with Apple Music in the future with a new “Classical” app. After nearly two years, Apple has finally confirmed that Apple Music Classical will launch later this month. And it comes with something that regular Apple Music should definitely have but doesn’t: a stand-alone app.

It’s been 16 months since Apple purchased the three-year-old classical music streaming service Primephonic. Meanwhile, there are only a few days left for Apple Music to meet its plan of launching a stand-alone Apple Classical app that replaces the discontinued Primephonic app. (This seems unlikely.)
