On June 22, Apple presented some of the new features, especially the main ones, which will come from the hand of iOS 14. As the days have passed, and the developers and users have installed the first beta, little by little, let's discovering new features and utilities which, being of minor importance, were not mentioned at the event.
Today we talk about Apple Music. Apple's streaming music service application will add enhancements such as a new Listen Now tab, improved search and autoplay. Continuing with the design changes, we will also find covers of animated playlists.
Within the Listen now tab we can see how the images or covers of the playlists, radio stations, albums ... are now bigger. Some of these playback options now show an animation, an animation that is not useful but gives the application a very cool touch.

These animations are mainly found in the playlists created by Apple but we can also find them in lists that users create, according to Benjamin Mayo from 9to5Mac. The animations are short and some look like simple animated wallpapers that we can find on iOS, showing short and colorful sequences that are repeated in a loop.
Improved search in iOS 14
With iOS 14, Apple allows us to search for songs by adding a large number of filters among which we find the genre, mood, activity as well as show suggestions in search results as we type.
Additionally, new filters have also been added to the library to make it easier to find specific artists, albums, and playlists in our library. If you stopped using Apple Music because of the basic search system it offers, now with iOS 14, you should give it a try again.
