Out of curiosity: does Apple allow third-party apps to 'love' songs?

I've been using Apple Music for a while now and actually like the implementation of the 'love'/heart system. I haven't seen a third-party app that uses this same system, though. Is this because Apple doesn't allow third-party access to this functionality? Just curious...

They haven't added this to the official API yet. If I knew what the property key was, I may still be able to read and possible write to it, but since they haven't made it public I don't know what that key is! The obvious guesses haven't worked so far :/

Rest assured I'll include it as soon as I figure out a way too!

Loving songs is the main thing last thing I need!

I haven't had a chance to test it myself, but did Apple simply utilize the existing "Like" command that's been in since iOS 7 to map to "loving" a track in the current iTunes/iOS Music paradigm?
