The latest is Fitness Plus, which integrates with the Apple Watch to provide heart rate and calories burned on-screen along with a workout instructor. Additional storage is available on a subscription basis, as well as subscription options for Apple Music, TV Plus, and streaming services. Apple has also expanded as a cloud service, with five gigabytes of iCloud storage for file and photo storage coming bundled for free with any iPhone, iPad, or Mac computer purchase. Over the years, laptop computers, monitors, and a whole range of mobile devices followed. But if you’re not a gift card person, there was no way to access this discounted rate.Apple used to be strictly a computer company, making hardware only, but it quickly expanded into software. So if you think you’re going to keep using Apple Music for the foreseeable future, you can switch in a couple of taps and save around 17.5 percent.īefore this change, you could buy an Apple Music gift card for $99 to get a full year of service access. Here’s what it looks like (prices may vary depending on your country): Then tap on your Apple ID, enter your password and tap on “View Apple ID.” Finally, tap on the Subscriptions button and you can access your Apple Music membership settings. Let’s hope that the upcoming App Store redesign is going to make it easier to access the subscription settings because we’re not there yet.įirst, you need to open the App Store app and scroll to the very bottom of the Featured tab. Now stay with me as it’s about to get a bit complicated. So new users will have to buy a monthly subscription first and then switch. But if you’re an existing subscriber, you can go to your membership settings and switch to an annual plan. If you’re not a current Apple Music subscriber, the Music app only lets you subscribe to a normal monthly plan as pictured above. We tried different scenarios, and it was quite hard to find the new annual plan - but it’s real. This setting is quite buried as Apple doesn’t want you to know that you can pay less than what you’re actually paying. You can now pay $99 for a 12-month subscription. But Apple quietly added another option as Tehnot spotted. If you’re an Apple Music subscriber, chances are that you’re paying $9.99 every month, $14.99 for a family plan, or $4.99 per month if you’re a student.
