Samsung’s beta music player app gets support for the Galaxy S6 and Galaxy Note 5

Samsung recently puts its proprietary music app for Android devices on the Play Store, soon after the Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 edge launched without the app installed by default. The Play Store version was initially supported only on the S7 lineup, but the Korean company has now made it compatible with the Galaxy S6 series and the Galaxy Note 5 as well.

Samsung had initially noted that the app was in beta, though that tag seems to have been removed with the update. It's not surprising – the Play Store version works just like the regular Samsung music app, with only interface changes noticeable. The changelog mentions bug fixes as well, and if you have one of Samsung's flagships from the last year, go ahead and grab the music app from the Play Store.

The update is also available from the Galaxy Apps store. You might need to be on Marshmallow for this to work, so we're guessing you will be out of luck if Samsung still hasn't pushed out Android 6.0 to your device.
