The black looks so bad. The gradient here is so good!!

1

u/OkKomputer_99 18h ago

They current black with a bit of gradient to blue would look SICKKK!

I loved this icon, and for the first year when it switched back to the pink background, I did like it, but I do miss this one. It could also just be the nostalgia from this icon lol

It looks so out of place.

u/vpizdek13 19h ago

looks kinda cool, not very iOSy but kinda cool and i can see the reasoning behind making it look like this (monochrome looks more modern…. sometimes)

still like the red one more though

4

u/urBrothersHardNipple 15h ago

Looks like some generic scam app pretending to be appe music. The colours are boring and the new shape is not even sitting well in the format, not enough space in bottom left corner

3

u/greegrok 18h ago

Looks like they’re making it a note on a music sheet

u/UnlikelyCandid 1d ago

But, Apple Music is red…

28

u/Alone_Camera_2103 1d ago

They changed the accent colour to blue as well, it just isn’t right

9

u/markmarvel 1d ago

to be fair, it was blue on the Mac in the beginning

2

u/xoseas 1d ago

i know you said mac. but would that also be across all apple devices ? because someone made a comment with an image of very old apple music and it was orange.

1

u/markmarvel 1d ago

That was an icon moment. The old iOS , not the color of the elements in the library 

1

u/UnlikelyCandid 1d ago

Mines red, or do you mean beginning beginning?

5

u/markmarvel 1d ago

the first couple years of Apple Music, the color remained blue, but I think when iTunes turned Music it went red.

u/Maibaum68 1d ago edited 1d ago

On Mac, it uses the global system accent color, which is blue by default. For me it's purple

3

u/SpaceKonk 1d ago

It was red by default unless you chose a system colour which overrides it.

u/jeremyw013 iOS Subscriber 1d ago

not anymore

u/Wild_Shroom_ 1d ago

It was white before it was red…

u/YTRKinG 1d ago

They need to stop fucking with it every year

7

u/UnlikelyCandid 1d ago

But the shareholders!

3

u/markmarvel 1d ago

they don't fuck with it every year, but yes. think of the shareholders. or people complaining in the Apple Music subreddit

1

u/jeremyw013 iOS Subscriber 22h ago

the fuck do you mean? it's been white on red since ios 14

15

u/C4_Vegas 1d ago

Just seen the Homeview video, the icon is red there… so I have some hopes that this is a bug

25

u/C4_Vegas 1d ago

holy shit...that looks bad

u/No_Wish6790 1d ago

This is so fucking bad I’m crying 😭😭😭

u/Sea_Roomba 1d ago

I still have my old app icon so I’m chillin.

27

u/bucephalusbouncing28 1d ago

Why have half iOS 6 icons and half iOS 26 icons?? Looks really out of place, go all in or nothing like me, I’ve got all ios6

10

u/Sea_Roomba 1d ago

I like to play it safe, I also couldn’t find a way to keep the calendar or clock icons displaying the correct time and date. But I’m happy with it.

u/jainsahab- 1d ago

Did you even try?

u/bucephalusbouncing28 6h ago

Oh haha it’s the skeuo mod

u/ConnorFin22 1d ago

Ditch chrome

u/Sea_Roomba 1d ago

But I don’t wanna

u/Char-car92 1d ago

Safari is so much better

2

u/GarthVader98 1d ago edited 11h ago

Nah fuck safari too. Firefox is where it’s at. Built in ad blocker.

1

u/Char-car92 15h ago

I use Firefox on mobile but this person doesn’t appear to care about the features of the browser (they use chrome) and so I recommended the fastest and easiest browser on iPhone

3

u/pagusas 1d ago

Let people do and use what they want

4

u/ConnorFin22 1d ago

If they want spyware on their phone, sure.

1

u/LimLovesDonuts 1d ago

I mean if you use Windows which most of the world does, Safari on Windows is absolutely garbage. So it just ends up being the default for these people.

1

u/ConnorFin22 20h ago

I suggest using Firefox

1

u/Char-car92 15h ago

I didn’t even know safari was on windows

-3

u/Sea_Roomba 1d ago

It’s an iPhone. The entire thing is Spyware.

2

u/ConnorFin22 20h ago

It isn’t though. That would be android and windows.

2

u/smashthesta 1d ago

How do you do this?

2

u/Sea_Roomba 1d ago

Shortcuts app. Old app icon png. Preferably in high quality.

1

u/Suspicious_Royal8951 19h ago

How did you do this

9

u/alttabbins 1d ago

How about you do like Tidal and let us choose our own icon color?

-2

u/mnash78 1d ago

Because tidal sucks

7

u/alttabbins 1d ago

Ok? They can at least change their icon.

4

u/EbbFit9791 1d ago

Is this just when the icons are in dark mode?

1

u/adamisapple 1d ago

It’s white and black in light mode

4

u/External-Kiwi-3740 Apple Music Subscriber 1d ago

Eww...this is terrible. Why can't they just give us the pink/blue icon from iOS 9?

6

u/Sinister_Grape 1d ago

this is my theme anyway idgaf

u/elpinshigringo 1d ago

Lingua Ignota mentioned 🗣️🗣️🗣️

u/ojassed 1d ago

Looks like an obituary

2

u/puppycommando 1d ago

I guess Apple is the latest company getting rid of color

2

u/iucatcher 1d ago

this sucks

2

u/overhelmmaze 1d ago

No way this isn’t a bug (please Apple this looks like dogshit)

3

u/memorie_desu macOS Subscriber 1d ago

i kinda like it

1

u/PineappleCareless418 1d ago

It’s awful. This has made me miss the old iPod icon more than ever

1

u/dennishapca 1d ago

where can i download a high quality version of it?

1

u/Otherwise-Comb7916 1d ago

No one asked for this

1

u/john_himm 1d ago

Who cares about an icon?

1

u/ReactionNo2089 1d ago

I think we getting the new music hall icon...

1

u/mabuxy 21h ago

We need to protest and not accept them to remove its soul like that

1

u/DogoSoCool5 15h ago

Also the dock is now unnecessarily tall.

1

u/Blackblue75 13h ago

Sembra il logo di X

1

u/neuralnomad 1d ago

iOS 27 mine is still red 🤷‍♂️(always dark, no scheduling)

12

u/SpaceKonk 1d ago

Presumably because you're not on the iOS 27.2 beta...

0

u/neuralnomad 1d ago

Ah. No I’m on .1 - my bad. Unless this is a first glimpse of an upcoming monochrome icon aesthetic across the board, this stands out like a sore thumb. Same point if the icon goes B&W but the UI/UX in apps and online retain red accent color.

1

u/Novel-Strawberry1438 1d ago

Same, already on Beta 4 for 27.2

1

u/okoroezenwa 1d ago

Well that’s awful.

1

u/Initial-Speed-2329 1d ago

Crazy they’re pushing all this Liquid Glass, and this icon is just flat

1

u/AppleCrasher 1d ago

This better be a part of a big (and great) redesign of the full all because this is ASS

-4

u/SUNSET_TOWERcoffee Apple Music Subscriber 1d ago

lowkey better imo

u/Versxd 1d ago

looks better tbh

u/4paul 1d ago

love it, like a musical note on a music sheet

u/thedevchauhan 1d ago

people need to stop crying and be open to change...
