In the latest beta version of iOS 27.2, Apple has introduced a new Apple Music icon, marking a shift in the company's branding strategy. The new icon is a stark contrast to its predecessor, with a black and white design replacing the previous red and white scheme. In light mode, the logo prominently features black on a white background, while in dark mode, the colors flip to white text on a black backdrop.
This redesigned Music app icon is a result of Apple's earlier unveiling of a new Apple Music logo in a prior iOS 27.2 iteration and its promotional materials for the recent Apple Music Hall event.
Moreover, the update extends beyond just the icon. Users of the iOS 27.2 beta 4 can expect blue highlights for the selected navigation bar icon within the Apple Music app, deviating from the red hues of previous iterations. Additionally, the text within the Music app's settings has also undergone a color change, swapping red for blue.
The impact of these changes is also evident in the Apple Music widgets, which now display a black background instead of the red background seen in earlier versions. This suggests that Apple is actively phasing out the red branding associated with its music service.
