Apple has confirmed that Apple Music Lossless and Spatial Audio support will come to India soon. After a few users reached out to Apple on Twitter on the unavailability of lossless audio streaming and Spatial Audio with support for Dolby Atmos, the company said these featured would be coming soon to India. Just last week, both lossless audio and Spatial audio landed on Apple Music right after this year’s WWDC keynote. Unfortunately, these features didn’t land in India somehow.
Last month, Apple announced it would soon add lossless audio streaming and Spatial Audio with support for Dolby Atmos to its Apple Music subscription at no extra charge. Spatial Audio with Dolby Atmos is a new format that will allow users to listen to selected tracks with a surround sound and 3D audio effects via iPhones, iPads, AirPods and HomePods. Spatial Audio will also come to Apple TV later this year. Apple is also bringing the Spatial Audio experience to FaceTime, its videoconferencing app.

Both features now come as part of the standard Apple Music subscription. The move to bring spatial audio experience to Apple Music is a part of the strategy to expand the ecosystem. The tech giant is facing tough competition from Spotify and Amazon Music in the music streaming category.
