If you happen to own an Apple device, you must have used Apple Music at some point in time. With more than 75 million songs in its database, it is one of the world’s largest music streaming services.
What sets it apart is the ability to download all your favorite songs, listen to them offline, create smart playlists, view lyrics in real-time, and much more.
Since Apple Music is available on multiple platforms and devices, millions of people use it daily to enjoy their favorite tracks.
Having said that, the service is far from perfect. It has tons of bugs, some of which are really irritating and completely ruin the user experience.
For some time, users were experiencing an issue where they heard a cracking/ popping sound when playing audio on Apple music on macOS-powered devices.
It looks like it is here to stay even after the Big Sur 11.5.1 update. However, the cracking sound issue seems to be present only on the macOS version of Apple Music.
According to users, the cracking sound goes away if they use the Apple Music website, but it is just a streamed-down version of the app and lacks many useful features the app has to offer.
In the meantime, some users suggest that turning off the Sound Enhancer in the settings fixed the loud cracking sound for them.
If you think this is the end, we are here to tell you it’s not. Another issue Apple Music users on macOS are tired of is the frequent disappearance of the back button in the browse section.
Users are tired of the back button disappearing randomly when browsing music in the Apple Music app.
While restarting the app fixes the issue, it is not practical at all. If the back button disappears when you are browsing the Apple Music app on macOS, just press cmd+Z to navigate to the previous screen.
We hope Apple listens to its users and fixes these issues in the near future.
