Apple no longer offers its $4.99 per month Apple Music Voice Plan, as reported by MacMagazine.
The Voice Plan, introduced in 2021, let you access the Apple Music library via Siri across your devices. But as of Wednesday, it’s no longer listed among the Apple Music plans that you can subscribe to on Apple’s website — the grid on the site currently includes the Student, Individual, and Family plans. (The Voice Plan was listed on the website as of Tuesday, according to an archived version of the page on the Wayback Machine.)
If you are currently on the Voice Plan, Apple will turn off auto-renew, the company writes in a support page about the plan’s discontinuation. Naturally, Apple says that you can also switch to one of its other Apple Music plans.
With the removal of the Voice Plan, Apple’s most affordable Apple Music offering is the $5.99 per month Student tier — which, of course, is only available to students. The company raised the price of the Apple Music Student plan in June 2022 and bumped up the cost of the Individual and Family plans in October 2022.
Amazon still offers its $4.99 Amazon Music Unlimited tier that only lets you access the service from one Echo or Fire TV device.
Update November 1st, 4:06PM ET: Added details from an Apple support page.
