With iOS 18 and macOS 15, the Apple Music app will get smarter song transitions, KeynoteUSA reports. Apple is reportedly testing a new feature called “smart song transitions” that would be an improvement on the current crossfade option that comes into play when moving from one song to the next.

With smart song transitions, Apple Music users will be able to adjust the length of the crossfade from 1 to 12 seconds. Currently, the crossfade bridges the gap between songs by lowering the volume of the song that’s ending and raising the volume of the new song, creating a seamless transition without the music ever ending.
KeynoteUSA claims that Apple is also working on a new feature called “Passthrough” for Apple Music and QuickTime Player, but there’s no information on what this feature is. The site suggests that it’s related to Spatial Audio with Dolby Atmos.
Similarly, Apple is said to be working internally on a “space gaming” feature, but there are no details on what that might be either.
iOS 18 will be unveiled at the Worldwide Developers Conference starting on Monday, June 10.
