Apple explained its Music logo redesign, and some people like it now

Apple's new Music redesign was a recent source of controversy, but it seems like people are warming up to it.

Apple explained its Music logo redesign, and some people like it now

Earlier this month, some Apple Music enthusiasts expressed dissatisfaction with the app's new logo. However, after Apple's explanation, it appears that people are becoming more accepting of the design change. Apple released a brief YouTube video detailing the upcoming Apple Music redesign, which will coincide with the release of iOS 27.2.

The new app logo features a black and white aesthetic with a touch of Liquid Glass, departing from the previous red color scheme of Apple Music. In the video, Apple explained that the app's new visuals were "made by sound," essentially playing sound through a container in which liquid vibrates at the frequency of the music, thus inspiring the new app logo.

Collaborating on the redesign were music producer Fred Again and NEST Acoustics. Upon the announcement of the new logo in early October, some fans on social media were unhappy. However, as reports of the new logo emerged on X, it seems that some individuals are gradually warming up to the change, particularly following Apple's explanation. It remains to be seen if this acceptance will persist once the update becomes available to everyone later this month.
