Mp3 supported on my cloud but not my cloud home

Does anyone know why mp3 files are supported on my cloud but not my cloud home when using the mobile app? A friend of mine has the my cloud device and on his mobile app he can play mp3 files and it has has a music category that can be selected. The mobile app for the my cloud home obviously doesn’t have this category, it just has photos.

Are there any plans to update it to support mp3 files?
