Twitter confirmed the news on the micro-blogging site on Friday, and said, "Later this afternoon (21 March), we will be removing Twitter #music from the App Store. If you have the app, it will continue to work until April 18."
The San Francisco-based company revealed that users already using the app on iOS devices can continue to use it until 18 April. Notably, Twitter Music was officially unveiled on 18 April 2013.
The service used information from Twitter chatter to find popular tracks as well as new artists. Users who follow musicians could see what artists those musicians follow and listen to songs by them.
Further, Twitter said, "We continue to experiment with new ways to bring you great content based on the music activity we see every day on Twitter."
