What's New in Shruti Laya

6.3

October 28, 2026

No more surprise drone in the car. • Shruti-Laya no longer starts playing by itself when your phone connects to a car or a Bluetooth headset. Once you stop playing, your car's play button goes back to your usual music app. • Pausing from the Lock Screen or Control Center still works, and you can resume from there for up to 10 minutes.
