iOS 26.2 brings continued enhancements to the listening experience. Alongside bug corrections, Apple Music now presents the Favorite Songs playlist prominently in Top Picks on the home tab. Additionally, users can view lyrics for their downloaded tracks within the app while streaming, even without an internet connection.
This update ensures that Apple Music subscribers will no longer have to wonder what an artist is singing. This feature is particularly beneficial when an Apple Music user is airborne without Wi-Fi, rehearsing songs from their beloved artists while queuing for a concert, or simply when they lack a stable internet connection but wish to sing along to fresh or less familiar tunes.
With this newly introduced functionality, Apple Music subscribers gain an advantage that Spotify users lack. Furthermore, Apple Music users do not need to take any extra steps to access their song lyrics; they just need to ensure they are on iOS 26.2. However, if offline lyrics do not appear, one can re-download a previously available offline song.
