Apple has discontinued its $5 monthly Voice Plan for Apple Music, designed to enable Siri voice command access to the platform’s catalog, likely over limited user engagement.
Apple introduced the Voice Plan in October 2021. It was a $5 monthly subscription devised to let users access the platform’s catalog using Siri voice commands.
However, as of Wednesday, Apple has removed the option from it’s Apple Music subscription page, as noted by MacMagazine.
While Apple hasn’t officially commented on the change, it’s likely that the plan was not widely utilized.
Apple Music Voice Plan allowed users to listen to songs, playlists, albums, and other content on Apple Music using just voice commands. However, the service was paired down and did not support Spatial Audio, Lossless quality, downloading songs for offline use, or displaying lyrics.
