iOS 27.2 adds new Apple Music icon
In the fourth beta of iOS 27.2, Apple updated the Apple Music icon. The new icon is black and white, replacing the old red and white icon.
In light mode, the logo is black on a white background, and in dark mode, it is white on a black background.
The refreshed Music app icon comes after Apple debuted a new Apple Music logo in an earlier version of iOS 27.2 and in marketing materials for its recent Apple Music Hall announcement.

Along with a new icon, the Apple Music app in iOS 27.2 beta 4 features blue highlights for the selected navigation bar icon rather than red, and the text in the Music app settings also replaces red with blue. The Apple Music widgets also have a black background instead of a red background, suggesting that Apple is phasing out much of the red branding for the music service.
