Live Radio is the third new Apple Music widget in iOS 26
iOS 26 is turning out to be a packed release for Apple Music users.
The Music app is getting a great new AutoMix feature, pinned music, playlist folder creation, and a lot more.
Apple also has several new Home Screen widgets coming in iOS 26.
In iOS 26 beta 1, there were medium and large-sized widgets for Pins.
The medium widget shows four of your pinned music selections, while the large shows six.
Today in beta 2, iOS 26 has added a third new widget: Live Radio.
This is currently only available in a large size, but it offers quick access to Apple Music’s six 24/7 live radio stations.
Included are:
- Apple Music 1
- Apple Music Hits
- Apple Music Country
- Apple Música Uno
- Apple Music Club
- Apple Music Chill
For the times when you don’t feel like picking your own music, Apple Music’s radio stations can now be just a single tap away from your iOS 26 Home Screen.
