2024-09-28 20:30:00

The native app Music (Music) received a very interesting function with the arrival of iOS 18.

baptized by Tactile Music Response (Music Haptics)it uses the Taptic Engine (vibration engine in iPhones) to offer a response in the form of vibrations on the device while the music is playing — and in sync with it, of course.

The feature supports Apple Music, Apple Music Classical, Shazam, and third-party apps when iPhone is connected to a cellular network or Wi-Fi. Additionally, haptic feedback can also be used while you are using headphones wired or wireless earbuds (including those from Apple and Beats, of course).
