Description
Some apps may crash on start due to the absence of the NSAppleMusicUsageDescription key in info.plist when an Apple Music subscription is active in the host device.
Termination Reason: Namespace TCC, Code 0
This app has crashed because it attempted to access privacy-sensitive data without a usage description. The app's Info.plist must contain an NSAppleMusicUsageDescription key with a string value explaining to the user how the app uses this data.
Workaround:
Adding the key manually to info.plist:
<key>NSAppleMusicUsageDescription</key>
<string>Anything</string>
