support spatial audio and lossless audio, AirTag loss mode can add email address
Early this morning, Apple released iOS 14.6 and iPadOS 14.6 RC (Release Candidate) updates for developers.
iOS and iPadOS 14.6 added support for Apple Music features, including Spatial Audio with Dolby Atmos and Lossless Audio.
Apple said that spatial audio will provide an immersive audio experience, while lossless audio will provide higher quality music. At the time of release, thousands of tracks will support spatial audio, and over 20,000 songs will support lossless audio. By the end of this year, 75 million songs will support lossless audio.
Naijatechnews understands that for AirTags, the beta version adds a new feature that allows users to enter an email address as a contact method in Lost Mode instead of a phone number. In iOS 14.5, there is no option to use email, and Apple only allows the use of phone numbers.
iOS 14.6 will launch Apple’s podcast subscription service for the first time. This service was first announced at the Apple conference in April.
