iOS beta 8.4 has moved the audiobooks into the iBook app, thus making it easy for the users to access their entire ebook library in one go, with just one app. The new update has also addressed another problem of audiobooks, and now it lets the users view the titles of the chapters and then select them as well.

The Apple users saw a superbly revamped version of the in built music player. It includes a new design which shows the picture of artists while their album's music is played; and in addition to this, it also offers the users to create a personalized playlist, to suit their needs.

The iOS beta 8.4 has an early preview of mainly the look and feel of the next version of all the music apps. The radio apps, the in built music app, the iTunes sync app; all the apps have gotten an overhaul, Computer World reported.

There is also a new Mini Player which has global searching capabilities which allows the user to search for the music which they want to listen from all around the web. The app is also designed to make the iTunes be in a better sync with the Apple device, Deccan Chronicle reported.

However, with so many likeable features, the updates has also known to cause many issues. For example, the iOS in built voice command Siri cannot be used to control the iTunes Radio and also, the Air Play streaming cannot be done properly. The option for sharing the iTunes Radio is also not available and the users cannot start to play the station from the Now Playing section.

Also, the Music App might quit in an unexpected manner, with possible loss of playlist; even the phone's orientation might change to landscape without any warning.

With these bugs, the developers at Apple are aiming to correct these issues before a full version of the Music apps update is released for the iPhone users.
