In an interview with WIRED, Apple Music head Oliver Schusser has revealed that Apple has a team of employees listening to songs and transcribing the lyrics to ensure they are accurate for iOS 13`s new real-time lyrics feature:In probably the most bizarre example of Apple spending to get the experience right, Schusser says that Apple has `a team of people listening to music and transcribing the lyrics` to ensure they`re accurate enough for Apple Music`s new time synced lyrics feature; `we don`t get them from the usual sites.`With iOS 13`s real-time lyrics feature, each verse appears in time with the music so you can follow along as you listen. To jump to a certain verse, just scroll and tap any line. The feature is not available for all songs.
The interview contains a few other notable tidbits from Beats 1 radio host Zane Lowe, including the possibility of the Apple Music Festival returning in the future and `some big new names` who will accompany Ebro Darden, Julie Adenuga, Matt Wilkinson, and himself as Beats 1 hosts in the future.
