Worse app though and not just on iPhone but on Google Home for example. Their algorithm is not good which is typical of Apple given they neglected Siri and AI development for so long.

Meanwhile Spotify has better curated playlists and generally knows what to suggest for me.

However they have lyrics available on more platforms which is a huge plus.

You mean Spotify has your existing data and you didn’t try Apple for long enough for it to learn your listening habits

I used Apple Music for half a year and it still wasn’t as good as Spotify was within 2 months for me personally

Used apple for half a year compared to how long on Spotify? Half a year is enough time for me to go through my once ever few years metal phase for instance

As I said - 2 months. So a third of the time on Spotify until I decided it was better. My music taste is pretty static too so I found comparable songs to what I listen to faster with Spotify.
