Apple Music subscribers can soon sing along to their favorite songs and become karaoke royalty.
Apple recently announced a new karaoke mode for Apple Music, allowing subscribers to sing along to their favorite music with real-time lyrics and adjustable vocals.
The feature is expected to come to Apple Music subscribers sometime later this December, per CNET.
Apple Music Sing Details
Apple revealed in its announcement that Apple Music's karaoke mode, called Apple Music Sing, will provide subscribers with multiple lyric views to help them time their singing, perform duets and even sing backup lyrics.
Oliver Schusser, Apple's vice president of Apple Music and Beats, said that Apple is aware that iOS users the world over love to follow along to their favorite songs. As such, Apple developed Apple Music Sings to create more engagement around music through singing.
"It's really a lot of fun, our customers are going to love it," Schusser said.
As previously mentioned, Apple Music Sing comes with adjustable vocals to give subscribers control over a song's vocal levels. As a result, they can sing with the original artist's vocals and take the lead or mix it with millions of songs in Apple Music's catalog.
The upcoming karaoke mode also comes with real-time animated lyrics that dance to the rhythm of a song's vocals. These animated lyrics also include background vocals to make it easier for users to follow where they are in a song.

Last but not least is the duet view for songs with multiple vocalists, enabling subscribers to sing along with friends, family, and loved ones by displaying the lyrics on opposite sides of the screen.
Apple Music subscribers will have an adequate number of songs to sing along to once Apple Music Sing gets released later this December. The Cupertino-based company said that the karaoke mode's launch would come with a suite of more than 50 dedicated companion playlists containing all of the songs, duets, choruses, and anthems compelling people worldwide to sing.
9to5Mac Reports that Apple Music Sing will also come with support for "tens of millions of songs," though Apple did not share details for the catalog in question.
It can be assumed that these songs will come with Dolby Atmos support since it allows for adjustable vocal volumes.
Apple Music Sing Release And Availability
Apple mentioned that its Music Sing would become available to all users worldwide later this month, just in time for the holiday season - the time when parties are frequent and common. However, it didn't say if the feature would be free or if it would come at a price.
The karaoke mode will be available on all compatible iPhone and iPad models as well as the new Apple TV 4K.
Unfortunately, Apple did not give a specific list of devices where the upcoming feature will work on.
Apple has yet to confirm if the feature will be available to third-party apps.
