Apple Music Has a Hidden iPod You Can Play With

Apple Music has an easter egg on the web: a fully-functional iPod that appears when you load a page that does not exist, such as music.apple.com/macrumors.

The easter egg is only visible in a web browser, so you will not be able to see it in the Apple Music app.

To avoid being automatically redirected to the Apple Music app, hold down the Command key when clicking on the link on a Mac, or press and hold on the link and tap "Open" on iOS. "Page Not Found," says Apple. "Give this a spin instead."

You can navigate the first-generation iPod using the click wheel and listen to 90-second previews of select songs from artists such as Alicia Keys, Beyonce, Britney Spears, Coldplay, Daft Punk, Drake, Dr. Dre, Eminem, Fall Out Boy, Foo Fighters, Justin Timberlake, Lady Gaga, Michael Jackson, Panic! At The Disco, U2, and more. There is even an easter egg within an easter egg.

If you navigate to Settings → About on the iPod and click and hold on the click wheel's center button, you can eventually play the classic game Breakout on the screen. Apple co-founders Steve Wozniak and Steve Jobs helped to create Breakout while they worked at Atari in the 1970s.

The easter egg was discovered on the 25th anniversary of Apple announcing the original iPod.Tag: Apple MusicThis article, "Apple Music Has a Hidden iPod You Can Play With" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums
