How to Listen to Apple Music on Chromebook [Indepth Tips]

Part 1. Get Apple Music on Chromebook via Andriod App

By default, Chromebook works well with the general streaming music service. It includes Spotify, Amazon Music Unlimited, Google Play Music, Pandora radio, etc. But Apple Music seems to be an exception. There is not an iTunes nor an Apple Music app for Chrome OS. This makes it impossible to authorize the M4P files on Chromebook like Windows and Mac PCs.

Fortunately, with the new release of Apple Music's Android app in 2019, one of the highlight features is to support for Chromebook. It means that you can get Apple Music on a Chromebook via the app. But not any device with Chrome OS supports to install Android apps. So please make sure you have a compatible Chromebook such as the Google Pixel.

Set Up Apple Music for Android App

Not all devices with Chrome OS support to install Android apps, so please make sure you have a compatible Chromebook such as the Google Pixel.

Step 1. Launch Google Play from your Chromebook.

Step 2. Search and Install Apple Music for Android app into your Chromebook. It takes a few minutes, please wait for it to complete.

Step 3. Now you can launch the app to access your Apple Music from a Chromebook as you did on your Android and iOS devices.

A few months later, Apple has been geared up to compete with Spotify by releasing new features. One of them is to launch the web player for Apple Music. It allows users to listen to Apple Music in the web browser and is compatible with Chromebooks.

Part 3. Play Apple Music on Chromebook like Local Songs

The two solutions mentioned above may not work sometimes because we don't always have Internet access and some Chromebooks just don't compatible with Android apps. So can we transfer Apple Music to Chromebook for offline listening just like the local songs?
