Apple Music finally hit the Microsoft Store today. Xbox users will be able to access it right away, and it will also arrive on Windows next year. Both Apple Music and Apple TV will be available in preview versions soon for Windows, allowing Apple subscribers to access music and TV shows locally on Windows without having to use the web versions or the pre-existing iTunes app. Microsoft is also integrating iCloud photos into its built-in Photos app on Windows 11.
The new update will see iCloud photos appear in the main Windows Photos app, making it easier for iPhone owners to find photos from their device on a Windows PC or laptop. Windows users just need to install the latest iCloud for Windows app from Apple to get this integration.
Apple’s new integrations on Windows and Xbox follow the launch of the Apple TV on Xbox consoles nearly two years ago and the appearance of Apple Music on PS5 last year. Apple has taken a while to fully support Windows and the Microsoft Store here, but iCloud Photos integration is a particularly welcome addition for iPhone users who also use a Windows laptop or computer.
