Apple Music’s new ‘For You’ gives you different themes to soundtrack your day
Apple Music’s ‘For You’ is getting themes to soundtrack your life that update throughout the day.
As with all of the major streaming services, Apple Music pride themselves on presenting their users with curated playlists and recommendations that suit them. They’re updating their ‘For You’ section to make it an even more exciting and personalised place to come for listening suggestions.
The new layout will be organised around ‘themes’ of music that are personalised for each user. Examples of themes include collections of music “To Make You Smile” and “Starting Early” on top of artists and genres that Apple Music have selected based on your tastes. Beats 1 episodes will also be included in recommendations when they think it suits you.
Use Apple Music’s ‘love’ and ‘dislike’ features on tracks, albums and artists to refine your preferences on the service. The knowledge will all help Apple into presenting you with the music they think you will like arranged into themes so you can easily browse and find a mood or scenario that fits you.
The themes and offerings will be regularly updated, even throughout the day so when you come back to the app you have something new to try. The new themes can be found in the For You section under the existing features in that section.
Listening to the music you like will improve Apple Music’s understanding but don’t forget to use the love and dislike buttons to refine it even more.
