Legacy shutdown and migration notice
The legacy Play Music app opens with a clear message that the service is no longer available and that the best features live in YouTube Music. The same screen offers Explore YouTube Music, hide app, delete local data, and app info actions.
This makes the package most relevant for users cleaning up a legacy install, reviewing local data, or understanding migration behavior. Users looking for active music streaming should expect YouTube Music rather than the old Play Music service.
This gives the section a clearer user value by connecting the main feature to a concrete mobile use case, session goal, or replay reason.
YouTube Music handoff and premium prompts
After choosing the handoff path, the visible music experience shows YouTube Music screens with Music Premium messaging, home recommendations, moods, genres, trending community playlists, samples, explore, library, downloads prompts, and upgrade offers.
The handoff can help users understand where current music features moved, including music discovery, samples, libraries, downloads, playlists, recommendations, radio-style browsing, subscription prompts, trials, and offline listening. Premium prompts, background playback, and downloads should be reviewed before starting a subscription decision.

Storage, notifications, and local data
Android settings show notifications, supported links, storage, battery, background data, app info, and local data controls for the legacy package. The shutdown page also includes options to free up space and delete local data.
This is useful for cleaning old cache, removing unused files, reducing clutter, managing device space, checking residual downloads, old app records, or confirming that the retired app is not using unnecessary storage. Users should back up anything important before deleting local music data.
