Key Takeaways:
- Petey, the AI app, now connects to Apple Music.
- Users can create playlists and add individual songs to their libraries.

Expanding AI Capabilities with Apple Music Integration
The Petey app, which initially made waves by introducing ChatGPT to Apple Watch users, is taking its features to the next level by connecting with Apple Music.
This groundbreaking update enables users to access the AI assistant on their iPhone, offering a faster and more convenient way to interact with the technology.
The update also includes a paid “Petey Premium” subscription, giving users access to the advanced GPT-4 model.
This enhanced AI capability showcases the potential for Apple and other companies to harness AI in offering tailored recommendations within their apps.
A Simple Way to Create Personalized Playlists
With the Petey app, creating a personalized playlist is as easy as typing your request into the interface.
For example, typing a request for 90s grunge will generate a playlist featuring iconic bands like Nirvana, Stone Temple Pilots, Pearl Jam, Alice in Chains and Soundgarden.
The app then displays short previews of each recommended song, allowing you to scroll through and sample the tracks.
If you like a song, tap the “more” menu (it has three dots) next to the song. Then you can listen to the whole song in Apple Music or save it to your library.
The Power of AI in Music Recommendations
Petey’s new Apple Music feature is a prime example of the power of AI in providing personalized recommendations.
By analyzing your music preferences and listening habits, the app can generate playlists that cater to your unique tastes.
Additionally, users can tap “learn more” about a song, which opens the NowPlaying app, created by Petey developer Hidde van der Ploeg.
This app provides interesting facts and details about songs, records, and artists, offering users an immersive and informative music experience.
With the integration of AI technology, Apple Music users can expect a more refined, personalized experience that caters to their unique preferences and enhances their enjoyment of music.
How to Get Started with Petey and Apple Music
To access Petey’s music recommendations, users must have an Apple Music subscription, as the service does not offer a free tier.
In addition, users must have either a Basic or Premium subscription to Petey or use their own OpenAI API key.
Other updates rolling out alongside the Apple Music integration and GPT-4 support include alternative payment options for the Petey Basic subscription, alternative app icons, and the ability to send messages from your Apple Watch to your phone without requiring a Basic subscription or your own API key.
Petey is available for free download from the App Store, but a subscription is required to access its features on the iPhone.
Since its initial launch as an Apple Watch-only app on March 8, Petey has seen 24.7,000 total installs.
The iPhone version has been available since April 6.
The latest update, Petey version 2.1, includes the ability to connect to Apple Music, enabling users to leverage GPT-generated playlists and add songs.
Additional changes include GPT-4 access for iOS, new payment options, custom app icons, and bug fixes and improvements.
Petey is a paid app, with a $4.99 price tag and options for either a subscription or a one-time purchase to unlock full access to GPT.
However, if you have your own GPT API key, you can use that instead.
Conclusion
The groundbreaking integration of AI technology with Apple Music through the Petey app promises to usher in a new era of personalized music discovery and enjoyment.
As AI continues to advance and become more integrated with our daily lives, we can expect even more innovative and user-friendly applications that enhance our experiences with music, entertainment, and other forms of media.
The future of music curation is here, and it’s powered by AI.
