5 ways to improve Apple Music in iTunes

The last iTunes update brought some long-awaited improvements to Apple Music. We always welcome the changes and bug fixes, but Apple Music in iTunes still far from perfect.

Many appreciated the streaming service of Apple. In fact, it turns gadgets into players with an unlimited catalog of music of different genres. An extensive library of content service opportunities are not limited to: he offers to listen to music without downloading songs to your device, make playlists according to your tastes, and it’s all for a very affordable price.

Mobile implementation Apple Music makes a great impression – it has a convenient and logical interface. What can be said about the PC version. Apple still haven’t added to iTunes a number of simple and very necessary functions. In addition, the interface has extra elements may be waived as unnecessary. So, five suggestions for improving the Apple Music on Mac and PC.

Add songs to My music “in one click”

I often add new songs to the library, and I believe that this process can be simplified. Next to the name of each song is “heart” – so users can tell the service about their preferences. Is really convenient. However, in order to save the song itself, you have to open menu and then choose the desired option. It is unclear why such an important function required an additional click. The user should be able when you view the directory at any time to maintain desired track to your library.

Live search

Own search Apple Spotlight is able to display movie showtimes even before the user has finished typing the name of the movie. So why search Apple Music in iTunes forces you to enter search queries completely? In the yard in 2015. As soon as I start typing “Jaz” in the search window, I should see a tooltip “Jazmine Sullivan” and a few of her most popular songs. The same Spotify cope with it fine, but Apple Music isn’t like that.

Not to add the playlists in My music automatically

Often I look at the suggested albums and playlists in the “For you”, because Apple has a great system recommendations. I saved about 10 playlists for listening to all the songs from those playlists immediately appeared in My music. Why the user cannot save playlists separately and then transfer to your favourite library? For example, I have a few playlists for fitness. The tracks help to focus on the training, but they are not needed in the library in shuffle mode for everyday listening.

Revision Connect

Connect I use the least, but it has serious potential. Now the service looks like some Pinterest in iTunes, while it does not fill the entire window of the program. Apple just posted the posts of musicians in two columns and call it a social network. Of course, there’s interesting content, but if I wonder what is he doing now a musician, I’ll come in Vkontakte or Facebook. I would like to see more integration in to Connect with loved ones. Also lacks the ability to share music with friends and other users of Apple Music.

Merge iTunes Store and Apple Music

It is clear that Apple is still too early to get rid of the iTunes Store streaming is just beginning. However, the concept of Apple Music and the iTunes Store completely contradict each other. In addition, pages, artists, and albums in these sections look completely different.

When viewing the iTunes Store songs not enough buttons “to Play in the Apple Music”. Perhaps Apple has decided to abandon the integration iTunes Store with Apple Music because of agreements with the music labels. But for the user it is very uncomfortable.
