Apple Music Classical Now Available on CarPlay [Removed]

Apple Music Classical was updated today with what appeared to be CarPlay support, but this was quickly reversed in a follow-up update.

Apple Music Classical Carplay Feature 2 1
Apple Music Classical showed up on CarPlay starting with version 1.2 today, but support was removed in version 1.2.1 just hours later, after the app failed to load when opened on CarPlay. It's unclear if or when CarPlay support will return.

Apple Music Classical first launched in March 2023, offering users with a standard Apple Music subscription access to over five million classical music tracks at no additional cost. The streaming app features advanced search functionality, exclusive artwork, extensive metadata, curated listening recommendations, and more.

The app is available on the iPhone, iPad, and Android devices. It is built upon Primephonic, a classical music streaming service acquired by Apple in 2021.

(Thanks, Sam Matheson!)

If these two apps are separate why does the music I select in the classical app show up as recently added section in the music app? And it doesn't show up in the classical app.

Apple tweeted this morning that it was now on CarPlay. That tells me they intend to fix it.
