Apple Music has many things going for it, especially the audio quality. There’s no official Apple Music app for Windows PC, though. But if you want to listen to high-quality music on Apple Music using your PC, there are many ways.

Listen to Apple Music on Windows Using iTunes

iTunes might be dead in Apple’s ecosystem, but it still lives on Windows. If you’ve ever used it, though, you would know it’s not the best thing to happen to Windows. iTunes is resource-intensive, has poor performance, and a bunch of other problems. As of now, however, it is the only official Apple Music PC app. If you want to download Apple Music on Windows, iTunes is your only option. If you’ve been an iTunes user before, things wouldn’t seem too unfamiliar. iTunes does not support the Lossless audio you’re probably used to on Apple Music on iOS and Android.

Launch Apple Music in Web Browser

While there isn’t an official Apple Music app on Windows, you can stream your Apple Music from the web. Apple Music supports Firefox as well as Chromium-based browsers. Those are pretty much the only two practical browser choices on Windows. So, regardless of which browser you use, you should be able to listen to Apple Music on Windows. Note: The web app does not support downloads or lossless audio. Visit: Apple Music Web Player If you’re using a Chromium-based browser, such as Chrome or Edge, you can also install Apple Music as a web app. Keep in mind, though, that the Apple Music web player is not a PWA (Progressive Web App).

You can pin it to the taskbar or the start menu.

Use Third-Party Apple Music App for PC

As long as there’s at least a website or a web app, third-party developers can always come in and create a desktop app. This has happened for many services, from Google Play Music to YouTube Music and even Spotify, which does have an official PC app. Naturally, Apple Music has some third-party clients as well that work on the PC. Using third-party solutions can be a potential security risk, as it always is. However, third-party clients for a service pose an extra threat, since you will probably want to log into your Apple Music account on this client. Usually, this happens over a web interface and is secure, but it is still a risk. If you are willing to take the risk, currently you have a couple of options.

Use Apple Music Electron on Windows
