Apple has multiple Apple Music plans available at myriad pricing plans. Plans start at $4.99 per month for Apple Music voice (Siri-only access to Apple Music), while student plans to the full Apple Music service cost just $4.99, too. Most people, however, will pay $9.99 for an individual monthly plan. But perhaps the best deal is the Apple Music Family Play, which is only $14.99 a month and lets six members of the same household access Apple Music.

Apple Music is also available in the Apple One plan, which bundles multiple Apple subscription services into one package, like Apple Arcade, Apple News+, and more.

One of the most popular features of Apple Music is called Lyrics View. This is a view option that allows you to see the lyrics of a song in real time as the song plays. The lyrics automatically scroll as the artist singe and the current line the artist is singing is bolded in lyrics view.

But lyrics view does more than just show you the lyrics. You can also scroll ahead in the lyrics as the song play and tap on any upcoming lyrics to automatically jump to that point in the song. In this way, Lyrics view is a really cool feature of Apple Music as it lets you visually find a certain place int he song very quickly.
