Apple's gradual branding refresh for Apple Music continues with iOS 27.2 beta 4, which debuted today for developers. The update introduces a new app icon for the Music app that removes the previous color scheme entirely.
By default, the new icon is a white background with a black music logo. In dark mode, it flips to a black background with a white logo. The change follows an all-new Apple Music logo that has already started appearing in more places, including in iOS 27.2 beta 3 last week.
Beyond the icon, the Music app's interface is also shifting away from its familiar red and pink branding. The active tab in the tab bar is now blue, a stark departure from the previous look. Widgets for the Music app now use simple black backgrounds instead of the iconic red and pink. Inside the Library, sections such as Playlists, Albums, Artists, and Songs have also had their color removed in favor of a black-and-white design.
Apple Music remains available for $11.99/month, or as part of the Apple One bundle.
