Apple announced at WWDC21 that consumers would now be able to listen to spatial audio and lossless quality audio for free on Apple Music. It is currently making its way to users in India. But what exactly does it mean? Let us break it down for you.

Spatial audio is a listening experience in which the listener has the impression that the sound is moving about them and coming from multiple directions. On the other hand, lossless quality audio keeps all of the highs and lows of the recording, making it sound exactly like the original track. Apple has added spatial audio with Dolby Atmos compatibility and lossless audio quality to Apple Music on iOS, iPad, and macOS.

Step 1: Go to Settings in the Apple Music app.

Step 2: Select Settings>Music>Dolby Atmos from the drop-down menu.

Step 3: click “Always On” from the drop-down menu.

At the bottom of the track, you’ll see a “Dolby Atmos” logo.
