Not all iOS 8.4 beta testers are seeing the prompts in the Music app, but MacRumors reports that when opening up the Music app, some users are prompted to start their free three month trial of Apple Music, even though the service won’t be available until June 30th.

Apple announced at WWDC that the new Apple Music service will launch on June 30th in over 100 countries, providing full streaming access to the entire iTunes catalog, plus Beats 1 radio and Apple Connect. While Beats 1 and some aspects of Connect will be available to all users for free, streaming will only be available to paid subscribers.
