Given how much musicians enjoy sharing important moments from their careers with their fans and thanking them for their support, Shareable Milestones makes it simple for them to do so. New highs and all-time bests in Plays and Shazams, as well as inclusion in Apple Music’s editorially curated playlists, are highlighted in milestones. How it works: Images commemorating the artist’s achievements will appear on the artist’s iOS overview page, and users will be able to see relevant milestones on the Song and Country detail pages. Artists can then press the share icon on any milestone image to launch the iOS share sheet and choose which social media site to share to. Users will be able to share their stories on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter, as well as via email and text messages. Every musician on Apple Music has access to Apple Music for Artists. On the Apple artist’s website, artists can register and claim their accounts. Artist provides a degree of detail beyond what is already available when signing up, including
