Apple Music for Android just got a little better with two new features

Apple Music for Android

Apple Music subscribers on Android are no longer second class citizens thanks to today's app update that includes music videos and a family plan.

Both these features were previously iOS exclusive, so it's nice to see Apple is working to create the same Apple Music experience across platforms.

No longer a solo act

Apple Music for Android is no longer a solo act thanks to the addition of a family plan that brings a better value to the monthly streaming price for people in the same household.

Families of up to six can purchase a $14.99 per month plan in the US as of today. That's a great deal compared to the $9.99/month plan for a single user.

With both the iOS and Android apps getting almost equal billing, Apple Music is now a little easier of a sell to the entire family.

In fact, the only glaring omission is Apple's refusal to support Google Cast. That may be a dealbreaker for some Android users who want to stream to speakers with Chromecast.
