The most recent version of the Apple Music beta app for Android has added Chromecast support, an often-requested feature by participants.

The streaming addition comes very nearly three years<\/a> after Apple officially released the Apple Music app on the Google Play store. Similar to how Apple Music on the iPad supports AirPlay speakers, a cast icon will appear in the app and the now playing pane.<\/p>\n

Radio has been available in iTunes for some time. At WWDC, Apple revealed iOS 13 would include support for live radio<\/a>, with over 100,000 different stations around the world available for listening, with additional support for iHeartRadio, TuneIn, and Radio.com. <\/p>\n

The additions were first spotted by Android Police<\/em> on Wednesday morning<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In March, analytics suggested that the Apple Music app had been installed on over 40 million<\/a> Android devices worldwide. Most of those installations were in the U.S., about 28 percent. India was a distant second at 7 percent, followed by Great Britain, Brazil, and Russia and 6, 5, and 4 percent respectively.<\/p>\n

It isn’t clear at present how many Android users are Apple Music subscribers.<\/p>\n
