AI summary of the reporting below · Updated · How we work
Apple is testing a new karaoke feature called Selfie Sing inside the iOS 27.3 beta, allowing subscribers to record video of themselves singing directly within the Apple Music app. First spotted by tester Aaron Perris on November 4, 2026, the tool expands the service's existing Sing feature by capturing vertical video alongside real-time scrolling lyrics.

When playing a compatible track, users can tap a new camera button beneath the vocal volume slider to record, adjust vocal levels, and apply voice effects including Megaphone, Echo, Concert Hall, and Studio. The feature does not cover the full Apple Music catalog, relying instead on a dedicated playlist that includes tracks such as Kelly Clarkson's Since U Been Gone and Dolly Parton's 9 to 5. It is also limited to iPhones, with no camera option appearing during tests on an iPad Pro running iPadOS 27.3, though it does support the iPhone Duo rear-camera selfie mode. [1][2]
The addition comes as Apple incorporates more social-friendly video tools natively, following its previous standalone Clips app. While iOS 27.3 is expected to become widely available in December with additional Siri AI tools and an updated Health app, Apple has not confirmed an official release date for Selfie Sing.
