TikTok introduces full-song Apple Music streams to app
"The new Play Full Song experience helps music fans move seamlessly from the moment of discovery to deeper listening, instantly, and all within the same environment. Users can also save their favorite songs to Your Music and add them directly to their Apple Music playlists, making it easier to keep track of the music they love for repeat future listening."
"Song playback is enabled via Apple Music, which means that any tracks played through this process support musicians via Apple's artists payments, while these songs are also logged in users' Apple Music listening history."
"Previous data insights published by TikTok showed that U.S. TikTok users were 74% more likely to discover and share new music in the app than the average short-form video user. In addition, the data showed that 84% of the songs that reached the Billboard 200 list in 2024 first gained traction on TikTok."
TikTok has introduced a new feature enabling Apple Music users to link their accounts and listen to full songs within the app, overcoming typical music licensing restrictions that limit platforms to 30-second previews. Users can save favorite songs to their Apple Music library and add tracks directly to playlists. A new Listening Party feature allows users and artists to listen together in real-time with group chat functionality. TikTok's influence in music discovery is substantial—U.S. users are 74% more likely to discover new music on the platform than average short-form video users, and 84% of Billboard 200 songs in 2024 gained initial traction on TikTok. Playback through Apple Music ensures artists receive proper payments and listening history is tracked.
