Earlier this year, Apple Music added two features that have quickly picked up plenty of attention. Lossless quality and Spatial Audio with Dolby Atmos. For Apple Music subscribers on Android, however, the wait has been a little longer. It has finally ended, though.
It's a new year, which means there are new emoji in the works. And as is par for the course, we have an early look at what's likely going to be part of the new addition later this year. This updates not as vast as previous years, but there are certainly some noteworthy newcomers.

Before Apple got around to officially announcing Dolby Atmos support in Apple Music, along with Lossless Audio, it was the Apple Music Android app that hinted at its impending arrival. But then the rumor mill suggested that app wouldn't get support for the new feature. Now, here we are and Spatial Audio with Dolby Atmos is out there in the wild, and Android support is indeed in the works.
Apple finally launched its item tracker, the AirTag, earlier this year. And now the company is announcing (before this year's WWDC no less) that major improvements are on the way. That comes in the form of new security measures and an upcoming Android app.

Coinbase has been around for a while now, focusing entirely on cryptocurrency. It's a service that started with a way to track different cryptocurrencies across the market. But now, the service also has a debit card.
Coinbase offers several different tools, including a built-in and self-hosted wallet that can store all sorts of currencies and NFTs. But it's newest service is the Coinbase Card, a Visa-branded debit card. It's technically still behind a waitlist, but Coinbase says it's sending out applications for those on that waitlist starting this week.
