Apple today released the first developer beta of iOS 26.4, and it includes a new Apple Intelligence feature for Apple Music.
Called “Playlist Playground,” this feature lets you create playlists based on text descriptions.
Apple Intelligence in Apple Music
The Playlist Playground feature is currently marked as ‘beta’. Access it in the Apple Music app by tapping the new playlist icon in the top-right corner of the “Library” page.
You can then simply enter a text prompt and Apple Music will generate a playlist based on your request. There are also built-in “New Playlist Ideas” prompts. Once the playlist is created, you can choose to add it to your Apple Music library. You can also manually add and remove songs and change the order of songs.
Once Playlist Playground has generated a playlist, you can repeat it with other prompts without having to start the process again.
If you don’t see the new option in the Music app on your iPhone after updating to iOS 26.4, it’s probably because new Apple Intelligence models are still downloading. You can check this by going to the Settings app and tapping the “Apple Intelligence & Siri” menu.
iOS 26.4 is currently available to developer beta testers. A public beta is expected in the next few weeks.
