Tidal today added support for its Tidal Masters Quality Authenticated audio tier on iOS devices, bringing master quality music to iOS devices for the first time.
Master audio was previously available on Android, but hasn’t been available to iPhone and iPad listeners.
Tidal’s highest studio quality audio option is limited to certain tracks (Tidal says there are 150,000 of them) and you’ll only hear higher fidelity audio if you’re using appropriate hardware, aka, a wired connection. Full release notes for the new Tidal update are below:
– HiFi users can now access over 150,000 master-quality tracks – audio as flawless as it sounded in the mastering suite.
– CarPlay improvements
– Minor bug fixes
Tidal master quality songs are available to those who subscribe to its Tidal HiFi service, which is priced at $19.99 per month. Tidal does offer a 60-day free trial for new subscribers.
A full list of albums that feature master quality recordings is available on Tidal’s website.
