Apple Watch Choose songs on your iPhone and they go onto your watch. Play them from your wrist with the phone left at home. Running Mode A full-screen player made for a run: very large one-handed controls, and a playlist built from the songs whose tempo matches the pace you are keeping. Heart rate and step rate on the same screen. Split a long recording into songs A whole concert, a mix or a compilation that arrived as one file: bMusic listens for where each song starts. You name them, and they land in a playlist of their own. Folders A folder tree of your own, optional, alongside albums, artists and genres. A code for Wi-Fi transfer Being on the same network is no longer enough. Each session shows a code the computer has to enter. Opus files Alongside MP3, AAC, M4A, ALAC, FLAC, WAV and AIFF. Also in this version: the theme follows the system by default, Siri and Shortcuts work straight from the lock screen, importing from a link has been rebuilt, song information is looked up in the store region you chose, and shuffle no longer starts on the same song every time.

Bug fixes and small improvements throughout.
