iOS 27 makes one of my favorite Apple Music features even better - 9to5Mac

Last year, Apple debuted a new feature called AutoMix in Apple Music. With this year’s iOS 27, the feature is getting a big upgrade with much better transitions than before.

As a refresher, AutoMix uses artificial intelligence to create DJ-like transitions between songs in Apple Music. According to Apple, the initial version of the feature used techniques such as “time stretching and beat matching” to achieve the perfect transition.

AutoMix in iOS 26 is impressive, but it tends to use a very similar and predictable style for most transitions.

In iOS 27, Apple says AutoMix “has added a whole new layer of energy and excitement to the experience with even better transitions that feel more immersive and engaging for listeners.”
