For years, Apple Music users have dreamed of a simple yet powerful feature: pinning their absolute favorite tracks directly to the top of their library. Well, the wait is over! iOS 26, launching this fall, is set to revolutionize your listening experience by finally introducing the much-requested ‘Pin to Top’ functionality.
Say goodbye to endless scrolling through playlists or manually creating “Top Hits” lists. With iOS 26, you’ll be able to select any song, album, or even artist and instantly pin it to a dedicated section at the very beginning of your Apple Music library. This means your most cherished music will be just a tap away, ready to soundtrack your day without any fuss.
This update is a game-changer for anyone who has those go-to tracks that always hit the spot. Whether it’s your morning motivation anthem, your chill-out evening soundtrack, or that song you can’t stop playing on repeat, pinning them will ensure they’re always front and center. Imagine quickly accessing your top 10 workout jams or your essential study tracks – all organized and instantly available.
The implementation looks sleek and intuitive. Simply tap and hold on a track, album, or artist, and you’ll see a new “Pin to Top” option. Once pinned, these items will appear in a newly designated “Pinned” section at the very top of your Music tab, easily distinguishable from the rest of your library. You can even reorder your pinned items, ensuring your ultimate favorites are in your preferred sequence.
This feature has been a staple in many third-party music apps for years, and its arrival on Apple Music is a testament to Apple listening to its user base. It’s the kind of quality-of-life improvement that makes a huge difference in daily usage, transforming how we interact with our vast music collections. Get ready to experience Apple Music like never before – with your most beloved tunes always within reach!
