Apple Music Adds Selfie Sing Karaoke Video Feature in iOS 27.3 Beta
Apple Music has added Selfie Sing in the iOS 27.3 beta, letting users record themselves singing along to songs.
The feature shows scrolling lyrics while the iPhone’s front-facing camera records a video.
After a song, users can adjust their voice volume or add effects, then save the video to Photos or share it.
Selfie Sing builds on Apple Music Sing, the service’s karaoke feature introduced in iOS 16.2.
For now, recording is available only with selected songs, including tracks by Aretha Franklin, Madonna and Oasis.
The camera option currently requires the iOS 27.3 beta, and the feature is not available for every Apple Music song.
The sources do not say when it will be available beyond the beta or whether more songs will be added.
