Suno brings text-to-song to iMessage, letting iPhone users generate tracks inside Messages
Suno now lives inside iMessage. As of July 15, 2026, iPhone users with the Suno app can generate a song from a text or voice prompt right inside Apple’s Messages app, with no app-switching. It’s Suno’s play for the TikTok trend of feeding text messages into an AI to turn them into a song.
This is an iMessage app extension, not an Apple partnership. The option shows up in the Messages drawer once you install Suno, next to the other iMessage apps.
How Suno’s iMessage text-to-song works
Here’s how it works:
- Update to the latest version of the Suno app.
- In Messages, tap the plus icon and open Suno from the app drawer.
- Type your lyrics or record them with your voice.
- Pick a genre and style, then generate the song.
- Send it into the conversation.
You can refresh the output to try different versions before you send. One catch: both people need the Suno app installed to share a song, so the person on the other end has to be in too.
What else Suno shipped
The update pulls some web-only features into the app. You can now choose male or female voices, generate sound effects, and use a new Mashup feature that combines “any two songs” into something new. There’s also a refreshed interface. To ride the FIFA World Cup wave, Suno is prompting users to build a soccer anthem by answering four questions about their team, as reported by Digital Music News.
