CUPERTINO, CALIFORNIA Apple today announced Apple Music Sing, an exciting new feature that allows users to sing along to their favorite songs with adjustable vocals1 and lyrics in real time. Apple Music Sing offers multiple lyric views to help fans take the lead, perform duets, sing backup and more — all integrated into Apple Music’s unique singing experience. Along with an ever-expanding catalog that includes tens of thousands of the world’s most singable songs, Apple Music Sing makes it fun and easy for everyone to participate, wherever and however they choose.
Apple Music Sing will be available later this month to Apple Music subscribers worldwide and can be enjoyed on iPhone, iPad and the new Apple TV 4K.

It’s really a lot of fun, our customers will love it .”
