The first feature allows TikTok users to add songs and audio clips they discover while browsing videos directly to their Apple Music library with a single tap, eliminating the need to search manually in separate apps. The second feature enables sharing favorite Apple Music tracks and playlists directly through TikTok Stories or posts, complete with direct listening links.
Through this collaboration, Apple aims to expand its music subscription base by leveraging TikTok’s wide reach and powerful music discovery ecosystem. Meanwhile, TikTok seeks to enhance the content creator experience by providing easy and legal tools to share high-quality music, strengthening its role as a key driver of global music trends.
The two companies have started rolling out these features gradually to iPhone users in select global markets, with a wider release expected in the coming weeks. The update reflects their joint effort to bridge the gap between social media platforms and live music streaming services.
