Microsoft Xbox Gaming Consoles Get Apple Music App

The Apple Music app is now available on Xbox consoles to allow users to play their favourite tracks to their heart’s content. While it provides similar experiences on other game consoles and smart TVs, the support had been missing for the Xbox gaming consoles. In the absence of the app, Xbox owners had to resort to involving third-party software. The Xbox store already supports various other music streaming services such as Spotify, Amazon Music, and Pandora. The Apple Music app has eventually joined the lot.
