Making the most of my 1-month Apple Music trial — what features should I try?
II’ve been considering giving Apple Music a proper try for a while now. I recently found out I can redeem a free month of Apple One, which includes Apple Music. Since I don’t qualify for the standard 3-month trial, this will probably be my only opportunity to really experience everything it has to offer.
I’ve been using the green app for years, so I want to make sure I don’t spend the month only using the basic features and miss out on things that make Apple Music special.
I’m not just looking for the obvious features—I already know about things like Lossless, Dolby Atmos, lyrics, etc. I’m more interested in the hidden features, quality-of-life improvements, and things that longtime Apple Music users think are underrated or easy to miss.
For example:
- Features that make Apple Music better than the green app
- Settings I should enable or change
- Personalized playlists or stations I should check out
- Hidden gestures, shortcuts, or UI tricks
- Anything that took you a while to discover
Basically, if you only had one month to convince someone to sw itch, what would you tell them to try?
