Apple's iOS 17.2 update introduces new features to Apple Music that could potentially attract Spotify users. The update, which was released in October 2023, includes a 'Listening History' feature and a 'Focus Mode' for Apple Music. The 'Listening History' feature allows users to view their recently played songs, albums, and playlists, a feature that was previously available only on Spotify. The 'Focus Mode' feature, on the other hand, allows users to listen to music without any interruptions or distractions.

In addition to these features, iOS 17.2 also introduces 'Collaborative Playlists' and 'Favorites' to Apple Music. 'Collaborative Playlists' allows multiple users to add songs to a shared playlist, a feature that Spotify has had for some time. 'Favorites', meanwhile, allows users to mark songs, albums, or playlists as favorites for easy access. These features are part of Apple's ongoing efforts to enhance the user experience on Apple Music and compete with Spotify.
