Apple Music is set to introduce a new Selfie Sing feature in iOS 27.3, allowing users to record videos of themselves while singing along to songs. This karaoke-like addition to Apple Music Sing aims to provide a more interactive and engaging experience. While the initial beta version showed an Animoji, it's important to note that Animoji functionality is not part of the new Selfie Sing mode.
The feature is exclusive to iPhones and requires iOS 27.3, meaning an iPad Pro running iPadOS 27.3 will not support the camera functionality. When compatible songs play on an iPhone with iOS 27.3, a new camera toggle will appear, enabling users to record vertical videos of their sing-alongs. This video recording feature can utilize the rear camera in conjunction with the outer display, allowing users to capture high-quality footage while still viewing the lyrics on-screen.
Apple has previously experimented with social media-centric features through the Clips app, but the integration of Selfie Sing directly into Apple Music could provide a unique and entertaining experience for users. However, similar features like "slofies" have often faded into obscurity, so the success of Selfie Sing remains to be seen, but it certainly adds a new, niche dimension to the world of karaoke.
