Apple released a new website called Spankshot, which looks like this is a guide to learn more about Apple Music, Apple TV+and Sports, although initiative, is rather limited. “Artists, actors and athletes you love on the apple.”
The new Snapshot website on Snapshot.Apple.com represents 36 celebrities showing Apple Music, Apple TV+or Apple Sports. They are presented as a name and a photo in a pair of lists that slowly scroll the horizontal.
This is a very slow scroll, without the opportunity to go through it. You can make it even more slowly by pressing the pause button, but scrolling is so slow that you can accidentally do this and demand moments to understand.
But then you must do it, click or press the name or photo, and then you took the page about this person. The page offers a brief biography, a link to their last work, and then learn more about them through Apple Music or Apple TV+.

if you go to a specific person, and then click to return, you return to the beginning of the list. Therefore, if you make a mistake and get acquainted with the wrong person, you can get stuck, waiting for the correct name to return again.
The list, apparently, is also not in any particular order. This, of course, is not an alphabet, but also not grouped, say, actors next to each other. So, Bad Bunny musician is located next to the actor/producer Rashida Jones, followed by Lady Gaga.
in the same way there is no obvious reason why there are two lines of 18 celebrities, and not one of all 36. This is also a curious list that, despite the fact that they are specifically about individuals, about the groups of Coldplay and BTS are included.
, how each person or group is presented a little reminds how Apple TV application shows Apple TV 4K applications.
Otherwise, it looks like a new step for Apple, only one where it will not immediately be clear how it will successfully promote any of the people that he identifies. Even if Apple comes to him from his different services, it will still be that it is faster and, possibly, more naturally to look for celebrities directly on Apple Music or Apple TV+.
