Integrating Apple Music Subscriptions into a React Native App
Hi everyone, I'm currently developing an iOS app using React Native and recently got accepted into the Apple Music Global Affiliate Program. To fully utilize this opportunity, I need to implement the following functionalities: Authorize Apple Music usage Play Apple Music within my app Identify if a user has an Apple Music subscription Initiate and complete Apple Music subscription within my app I've successfully implemented the first three functionalities using the react-native-apple-music module. Now, I need your help to understand how I can directly trigger the Apple Music subscription process from within my app. Thank you for your help!

Detect the end of queue in MPMusicPlayerController
Hello, this is building off of another post in which several other posters and I had already attempted solving the issue in hacky ways. I am using MPMusicPlayerController.applicationQueuePlayer. My end goal here is to dynamically add items to the queue when it has ended based on my application's business logic. There is no way for me to know what these items will be when I am initially setting the queue. I have an updated implementation that seems to cover most edge cases, except for a glaringly obvious one – if there is just one item in the queue, and the user skips the track via MPRemoteCommandCenter (eg. lock screen), then it does not work. Currently, when I receive a MPMusicPlayerControllerPlaybackStateDidChange notification, I run this block: if player.playbackState == .paused,            player.currentPlaybackTime == 0,            player.indexOfNowPlayingItem == 0 {             EndOfQueueManager.handle()         } In the absence of a mechanism to detect the end of the queue from the framework, I would love to add the ability to add a target to MPRemoteCommand, like you can do for AVPlayer. I have tried to do exactly that, but it does not work: MPRemoteCommandCenter.shared().nextTrackCommand.addTarget { (event) -> MPRemoteCommandHandlerStatus in         if queue.count == 1 {             EndOfQueueManager.handle() }         return .success } I already have a functioning AVPlayer implementation that achieves my goal without any compromises or edge cases. I would be very disappointed if there is no way to do this with MPMusicPlayerController – being notified about the queue ending feels like a fairly rudimentary API hook.

Audio transition using MPMusicPlayerApplicationController
Hi. I saw that in iOS 18 Beta there is a property "transition" on the Music Kit's ApplicationMusicPlayer. However, in my app I am using MPMusicPlayerApplicationController because I want to play Apple Music songs, local songs and podcasts. But I didn't find an analogue property on MPMusicPlayerApplicationController to specify transitions between songs. Am I missing something? Thanks, Dirk

Music Kit for web app
Hello there, I am faced with the following situation: We are building a web app that manages playlists for different platforms, including Apple music We have the concept of teams in there, where a user can be part of multiple teams, and teams are managed by team admin A team admin could manage multiple teams The problem here is, that a team admin wouldn't be able to sign in to the Apple music account for multiple teams because if using the same computer we try to let the user sign in once and store the Music User Token, we can't do another login unless we unauthorized the previous one. Is there anything we can do about this? Thanks

Music Kit for web app authorization of a user
Hi there, I ve Been wondering about getting a 'music user token' for manipulating users playlists. The situation I found myself in is that that can only be done in the front-end, but by exposing the 'developer token' I need to generate, and the 'developer token' is the key to our app, if someone takes that, they can do anything with it, am I wrong? Thanks for your time!

Cannot read playbackStoreID property from MPMediaItem in Mac target
Running in a Mac (Catalyst) target or Apple Silicon (designed for iPad). Just accessing the playbackStoreID from the MPMediaItem shows this error in the console: -[ITMediaItem valueForMPMediaEntityProperty:]: Unhandled MPMediaEntityProperty subscriptionStoreItemAdamID. The value returned is always “”. This works as expected on iOS and iPadOS, returning a valid playbackStoreID. import SwiftUI import MediaPlayer @main struct PSIDDemoApp: App { var body: some Scene { WindowGroup { Text("playbackStoreID demo") .task { let authResult = await MPMediaLibrary.requestAuthorization() if authResult == .authorized { if let item = MPMediaQuery.songs().items?.first { let persistentID = item.persistentID let playbackStoreID = item.playbackStoreID // <--- Here print("Item \(persistentID), \(playbackStoreID)") } } } } } } Xcode 15.1, also tested with Xcode 15.3 beta 2.

MusicLibraryRequest on macOS doesn't return non-Apple Music tracks
I filed FB13689023 for this since it is clearly unexpected. Non Apple Music library tracks are not returned on macOS using MusicLibraryRequest. I tried querying by artist where I only get Apple Music tracks, and by id where I don't get the track. On iPhone and iPad I was able to get both AM and non-AM tracks, that's how I got a valid id to try on macOS. Sync Library is on. The build targets My Mac (Designed for iPad). I'm using Xcode 15.3 and I'm on Sonoma (14.4). Any help is appreciated...

MusicKit Content Rights, Age Rating and App Encryption
I built an app that makes playing audio plays easier using MusicKit. Now I am about to release the app to the app store. Following questions occured while doing so: Am I accessing/showing third party content in my app when I am music (in this case radio plays) from MusicKit? I am getting all of that data directly from Apple. Is Apple a third party in this case? The publisher has an app that can playback all of the content that can be accessed in my app. This app has an age rating of 4+ years. Can I just copy that? I've heard that referring to other apps doesn't convince the App Review Team if they disagree. None of the titles are marked explicit in Apple Music. Under the hood MusicKit is using HTTPS to get the data from Apple's servers. I have no code that has anything to do with encryption or HTTPS. Does my app still uses Non Exempt Encryption because MusicKit does so? Can I access music through MusicKit that is otherwise not available in this region or does MusicKit take care of this for me? In other words do I have to restrict the availability of my app to certain regions so I don't bypass any geo blockings by accident? Thank you

iOS 16 Music Kit MusicLibrary methods have stopped working
Hi there, I have a related forum thread here and a Feedback Assistant ticket open, but this issue seems different. Sometime within the last 2-3 weeks, code related to MusicLibrary has stopped working. None of my code has changed. For example, the below two snippets used to work fine:  for track in newTracks {    try await MusicLibrary.shared.add(track, to: targetPlaylist)  } try await MusicLibrary.shared.edit(targetPlaylist, items: items) newTracks and items are both fetched using: try await targetPlaylist.with(.tracks, preferredSource: .catalog).tracks Using preferredSource: .catalog was a workaround used to address the issue in the aforementioned post above. All iOS 16 capable functions are decorated with: @available(iOS 16, *) or in an if block: if #available(iOS 16, *) {... What's happening is that the following is showing up in the console: 2022-11-28 23:31:11.279648+0700 MyApp[38653:6736450] [core] Attempted to register account monitor for types client is not authorized to access: {(     "com.apple.account.iTunesStore" )} 2022-11-28 23:31:11.279718+0700 MyApp[38653:6736450] [Default] <ICUserIdentityStoreACAccountBackend: 0x282adb520> Failed to register for account monitoring. err=Error Domain=com.apple.accounts Code=7 "(null)" 2022-11-28 23:31:11.279758+0700 MyApp[38653:6736450] [Default] ICUserIdentity - Unable to retrieve DSID for userIdentity=<ICUserIdentity 0x2806eb120: [Active Account: <unresolved>]> - error=Error Domain=com.apple.accounts Code=7 "(null)" These errors are not caught by a do/catch block, but I assume they are related to the issue, and I believe they have to do with MyApp trying to access things that Music Kit thinks it's not supposed to. For example, if MyApp attempts to work with a playlist that it did not create, errors would be expected, thrown errors. The thing is that I know I'm working with resources that are created by MyApp. In fact, in trying to test this, I just tried to create a playlist with the below, and the same behavior is occurring: @available(iOS 16, *) func createPlaylist2(name: String, description: String) async -> MusicKit.Playlist? {     do {         Logger.log(.info, "Creating Playlist: \(name)")         Logger.log(.shrug, "Does this work?")         let newPlaylist = try await MusicLibrary.shared.createPlaylist(name: name, description: description) // <= Things stop here!         Logger.log(.success, "New playlist created: \(newPlaylist)") // <= this isn't logged.         return newPlaylist // <= nothing is returned     } catch {         Logger.log(.error, "Could not create new playlist: \(error)") // <= no error logged.     }     return nil } The result is: 2022-11-29 00:15:01.875064+0700 MyApp[38794:6760471] [core] Attempted to register account monitor for types client is not authorized to access: {(     "com.apple.account.iTunesStore" )} 2022-11-29 00:15:01.875372+0700 MyApp[38794:6760471] [Default] <ICUserIdentityStoreACAccountBackend: 0x283005720> Failed to register for account monitoring. err=Error Domain=com.apple.accounts Code=7 "(null)" 2022-11-29 00:15:01.876677+0700 MyApp[38794:6760323] [EntityQuery] Finished executing query in 0.000999928s 2022-11-29 00:15:01.889055+0700 MyApp[38794:6760323] [EntityQuery] Finished fetching results in 0.0120001s 2022-11-29 00:15:01.891235+0700 MyApp[38794:6760329] [core] Attempted to register account monitor for types client is not authorized to access: {(     "com.apple.account.iTunesStore" )} 2022-11-29 00:15:01.891684+0700 MyApp[38794:6760329] [Default] <ICUserIdentityStoreACAccountBackend: 0x283005720> Failed to register for account monitoring. err=Error Domain=com.apple.accounts Code=7 "(null)" 📘 Creating Playlist: TEST PLAYLIST 🤷🏻‍♀️ Does this work? 2022-11-29 00:15:06.697374+0700 MyApp[38794:6760329] [] nw_path_necp_check_for_updates Failed to copy updated result (22) What's really nasty is that errors are not thrown, so they can't be caught and handled in a catch block. I know that iOS 16.1 got released around the end of October, but I really don't know what's going on here. The behavior is showing up in both prod and when testing locally. Any help would be most appreciated. @JoeKhun: Did I miss the memo?

MPMusicPlayerController queue information
Is there a way to get the current queue items from an MPMusicPlayerController? I need to know when the items I've set to the queue finish playing completely but cannot find any way to do this. I am not using MusicKit but setting the queue via play parameters. From what I can tell so far, after the queue finishes playing, it pauses and resets to the first item in the queue. So even after playback is done, there is no way to know that it finished on its own.

How to addObserver for currentPlaybackTime for the system music player?
I'm using the systemMusicPlayer to play music and want to update the playback time using addObserver forKeyPath. [self setMusicPlayer: [MPMusicPlayerController systemMusicPlayer]]; I've tried these two methods: [self addObserver:self forKeyPath:@"musicPlayer.currentPlaybackTime" options:NSKeyValueObservingOptionNew | NSKeyValueObservingOptionInitial context:&musicPlayer]; [self.musicPlayer addObserver:self forKeyPath:@"currentPlaybackTime" options:NSKeyValueObservingOptionNew | NSKeyValueObservingOptionInitial context:&musicPlayer]; I do get the initial values for currentPlaybackTime in: -(void)observeValueForKeyPath:(NSString *)keyPath ofObject:(id)object change:(NSDictionary *)change context:(void *)context but I never get any calls when the player is playing the song (the whole point). If I set the currentPlaybackTime to a specific value (locating manually using a slider), I get calls with the values I set (useless since I know what I am setting them to). How are we supposed to track the playback time without just polling it constantly?

iOS 17 MusicKit Song lastPlayedDate is always nil
Hey, I've been trying to fetch my Apple Music recently played songs for an app I'm working on, and I want to access the lastPlayedDate field. If I'm not mistaken, this field should exist for a Song according to Apple's documentation: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/musickit/song/lastplayeddate However, whenever I try to fetch this data, the lastPlayedDate field is always nil. All the other data I'm looking for, however, seems to fetch without issue. Here's the code I'm using: //Request as described in Apple MusicKit //https://developer.apple.com/documentation/musickit/musicrecentlyplayedrequestable var request = MusicRecentlyPlayedRequest<Song>() request.limit=30 do { let response = try await request.response() let songs = response.items.compactMap { song -> RecentlyPlayedSong? in let songName = song.title let songArtist = song.artistName let songAlbum = song.albumTitle let artwork: MusicArtworkType let preview_url = song.previewAssets?.first?.url?.absoluteString if let appleMusicArtwork = song.artwork { print("Found a song, \(song) with lastPlayedDate \(song.lastPlayedDate)") artwork = .AppleMusic(appleMusicArtwork) return RecentlyPlayedSong(name: songName, artist: songArtist, album: songAlbum, artwork: artwork, preview_url: preview_url, lastPlayedDate: song.lastPlayedDate ?? Date()) } I'm trying to map the response into a custom struct I made, but here's a sample of what's getting printed to the logs: Found a song, Song(id: "1676362342", title: "pwdr Blu (feat. Brother.)", artistName: "Kx5, deadmau5 & Kaskade") with lastPlayedDate nil Found a song, Song(id: "881289980", title: "Worlds Apart (feat. Kerli)", artistName: "Seven Lions") with lastPlayedDate nil Found a song, Song(id: "1501540431", title: "What’s Done Is Done", artistName: "Seven Lions & HALIENE") with lastPlayedDate nil Even though I just listened to these songs a a few minutes ago. Anyone ever run into this issue before? Any settings I need to look at changing to get this to show?

MusicKit MusicCatalogResourceRequest for artists with top-songs returns 504 in non-json format
I'm making a request to get 10 artists with their top songs at once, but for some artists it will always fail with a 504. The response is also in HTML which leads to a decoding error. This is my code var request = MusicCatalogResourceRequest<Artist>(matching: \.id, memberOf: ids) request.properties = properties let response = try await request.response() where ids is MusicItemId. Below I have an input which will always fail 100% of the time, even when retried. 10 elements  - 0 : "51639"  - 1 : "331584"  - 2 : "120199"  - 3 : "45058"  - 4 : "284786497"  - 5 : "44984"  - 6 : "37299"  - 7 : "518462"  - 8 : "39525"  - 9 : "73568" Example response: [DataRequesting] Failed to parse body of response with status code Unknown (504):  <!DOCTYPE html> <html lang="en"> <head>   <style>     body {       font-family: "Helvetica Neue", "HelveticaNeue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;       font-size: 15px;       font-weight: 200;       line-height: 20px;       color: #4c4c4c;       text-align: center;     }     .section {       margin-top: 50px;     }   </style> </head> <body> <div class="section">   <h1>&#63743;</h1>   <h3>Gateway Timeout</h3>   <p>Correlation Key: WFRI6Q5HXAUJYXGNRKQ6YTBYIM</p> </div> </body> </html> I have also tried batching these into 2 requests of 5 artists instead of 1 request of 10 artists which still fails. However, I do have sets of 10 artists that work fine. Anyone know why?

How to get the album info for a song fetched by MusicDataRequest?
I'm slowly learning the new MusicKit beta for swift. I've learned to successfully retrieve tracks of type Song using MusicDataRequest, using the following: ... let countryCode = try await MusicDataRequest.currentCountryCode if let url = URL(string: "https://api.music.apple.com/v1/catalog/\(countryCode)/songs?filter[isrc]=\(isrc)") {   let dataRequest = MusicDataRequest(urlRequest: URLRequest(url: url))   let dataResponse = try await dataRequest.response() ... However, when I decode the data, there does not seem to be any album information that I can see. I've tried adding includes=albums to the URL, but I don't think that's the right approach, because when I veiw the Song struct in MusicKit, I don't see a reference to an Album type anywhere. Any advice on how to retrieve the album information would be most appreciated. Thanks.

The thing is that I know I'm working with resources that are created by MyApp. In fact, in trying to test this, I just tried to create a playlist with the below, and the same behavior is occurring: @available(iOS 16, *) func createPlaylist2(name: String, description: String) async -> MusicKit.Playlist? {     do {         Logger.log(.info, "Creating Playlist: \(name)")         Logger.log(.shrug, "Does this work?")         let newPlaylist = try await MusicLibrary.shared.createPlaylist(name: name, description: description) // <= Things stop here!         Logger.log(.success, "New playlist created: \(newPlaylist)") // <= this isn't logged.         return newPlaylist // <= nothing is returned     } catch {         Logger.log(.error, "Could not create new playlist: \(error)") // <= no error logged.     }     return nil } The result is: 2022-11-29 00:15:01.875064+0700 MyApp[38794:6760471] [core] Attempted to register account monitor for types client is not authorized to access: {(     "com.apple.account.iTunesStore" )} 2022-11-29 00:15:01.875372+0700 MyApp[38794:6760471] [Default] <ICUserIdentityStoreACAccountBackend: 0x283005720> Failed to register for account monitoring. err=Error Domain=com.apple.accounts Code=7 "(null)" 2022-11-29 00:15:01.876677+0700 MyApp[38794:6760323] [EntityQuery] Finished executing query in 0.000999928s 2022-11-29 00:15:01.889055+0700 MyApp[38794:6760323] [EntityQuery] Finished fetching results in 0.0120001s 2022-11-29 00:15:01.891235+0700 MyApp[38794:6760329] [core] Attempted to register account monitor for types client is not authorized to access: {(     "com.apple.account.iTunesStore" )} 2022-11-29 00:15:01.891684+0700 MyApp[38794:6760329] [Default] <ICUserIdentityStoreACAccountBackend: 0x283005720> Failed to register for account monitoring. err=Error Domain=com.apple.accounts Code=7 "(null)" 📘 Creating Playlist: TEST PLAYLIST 🤷🏻‍♀️ Does this work? 2022-11-29 00:15:06.697374+0700 MyApp[38794:6760329] [] nw_path_necp_check_for_updates Failed to copy updated result (22) What's really nasty is that errors are not thrown, so they can't be caught and handled in a catch block. I know that iOS 16.1 got released around the end of October, but I really don't know what's going on here. The behavior is showing up in both prod and when testing locally. Any help would be most appreciated. @JoeKhun: Did I miss the memo?

MPMusicPlayerController queue information
Is there a way to get the current queue items from an MPMusicPlayerController? I need to know when the items I've set to the queue finish playing completely but cannot find any way to do this. I am not using MusicKit but setting the queue via play parameters. From what I can tell so far, after the queue finishes playing, it pauses and resets to the first item in the queue. So even after playback is done, there is no way to know that it finished on its own.

How to addObserver for currentPlaybackTime for the system music player?
I'm using the systemMusicPlayer to play music and want to update the playback time using addObserver forKeyPath. [self setMusicPlayer: [MPMusicPlayerController systemMusicPlayer]]; I've tried these two methods: [self addObserver:self forKeyPath:@"musicPlayer.currentPlaybackTime" options:NSKeyValueObservingOptionNew | NSKeyValueObservingOptionInitial context:&musicPlayer]; [self.musicPlayer addObserver:self forKeyPath:@"currentPlaybackTime" options:NSKeyValueObservingOptionNew | NSKeyValueObservingOptionInitial context:&musicPlayer]; I do get the initial values for currentPlaybackTime in: -(void)observeValueForKeyPath:(NSString *)keyPath ofObject:(id)object change:(NSDictionary *)change context:(void *)context but I never get any calls when the player is playing the song (the whole point). If I set the currentPlaybackTime to a specific value (locating manually using a slider), I get calls with the values I set (useless since I know what I am setting them to). How are we supposed to track the playback time without just polling it constantly?

iOS 17 MusicKit Song lastPlayedDate is always nil
Hey, I've been trying to fetch my Apple Music recently played songs for an app I'm working on, and I want to access the lastPlayedDate field. If I'm not mistaken, this field should exist for a Song according to Apple's documentation: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/musickit/song/lastplayeddate However, whenever I try to fetch this data, the lastPlayedDate field is always nil. All the other data I'm looking for, however, seems to fetch without issue. Here's the code I'm using: //Request as described in Apple MusicKit //https://developer.apple.com/documentation/musickit/musicrecentlyplayedrequestable var request = MusicRecentlyPlayedRequest<Song>() request.limit=30 do { let response = try await request.response() let songs = response.items.compactMap { song -> RecentlyPlayedSong? in let songName = song.title let songArtist = song.artistName let songAlbum = song.albumTitle let artwork: MusicArtworkType let preview_url = song.previewAssets?.first?.url?.absoluteString if let appleMusicArtwork = song.artwork { print("Found a song, \(song) with lastPlayedDate \(song.lastPlayedDate)") artwork = .AppleMusic(appleMusicArtwork) return RecentlyPlayedSong(name: songName, artist: songArtist, album: songAlbum, artwork: artwork, preview_url: preview_url, lastPlayedDate: song.lastPlayedDate ?? Date()) } I'm trying to map the response into a custom struct I made, but here's a sample of what's getting printed to the logs: Found a song, Song(id: "1676362342", title: "pwdr Blu (feat. Brother.)", artistName: "Kx5, deadmau5 & Kaskade") with lastPlayedDate nil Found a song, Song(id: "881289980", title: "Worlds Apart (feat. Kerli)", artistName: "Seven Lions") with lastPlayedDate nil Found a song, Song(id: "1501540431", title: "What’s Done Is Done", artistName: "Seven Lions & HALIENE") with lastPlayedDate nil Even though I just listened to these songs a a few minutes ago. Anyone ever run into this issue before? Any settings I need to look at changing to get this to show?

MusicKit MusicCatalogResourceRequest for artists with top-songs returns 504 in non-json format
I'm making a request to get 10 artists with their top songs at once, but for some artists it will always fail with a 504. The response is also in HTML which leads to a decoding error. This is my code var request = MusicCatalogResourceRequest<Artist>(matching: \.id, memberOf: ids) request.properties = properties let response = try await request.response() where ids is MusicItemId. Below I have an input which will always fail 100% of the time, even when retried. 10 elements  - 0 : "51639"  - 1 : "331584"  - 2 : "120199"  - 3 : "45058"  - 4 : "284786497"  - 5 : "44984"  - 6 : "37299"  - 7 : "518462"  - 8 : "39525"  - 9 : "73568" Example response: [DataRequesting] Failed to parse body of response with status code Unknown (504):  <!DOCTYPE html> <html lang="en"> <head>   <style>     body {       font-family: "Helvetica Neue", "HelveticaNeue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;       font-size: 15px;       font-weight: 200;       line-height: 20px;       color: #4c4c4c;       text-align: center;     }     .section {       margin-top: 50px;     }   </style> </head> <body> <div class="section">   <h1>&#63743;</h1>   <h3>Gateway Timeout</h3>   <p>Correlation Key: WFRI6Q5HXAUJYXGNRKQ6YTBYIM</p> </div> </body> </html> I have also tried batching these into 2 requests of 5 artists instead of 1 request of 10 artists which still fails. However, I do have sets of 10 artists that work fine. Anyone know why?

How to get the album info for a song fetched by MusicDataRequest?
I'm slowly learning the new MusicKit beta for swift. I've learned to successfully retrieve tracks of type Song using MusicDataRequest, using the following: ... let countryCode = try await MusicDataRequest.currentCountryCode if let url = URL(string: "https://api.music.apple.com/v1/catalog/\(countryCode)/songs?filter[isrc]=\(isrc)") {   let dataRequest = MusicDataRequest(urlRequest: URLRequest(url: url))   let dataResponse = try await dataRequest.response() ... However, when I decode the data, there does not seem to be any album information that I can see. I've tried adding includes=albums to the URL, but I don't think that's the right approach, because when I veiw the Song struct in MusicKit, I don't see a reference to an Album type anywhere. Any advice on how to retrieve the album information would be most appreciated. Thanks.
