Have you ever wondered how to get Apple Music working on Windows 10? Well, wonder no more! In this tutorial, we’ll show you how to do just that.
The first step is to open your web browser and search for “Cider Apple Music”. This will take you to the Cider sh website, which is an open-source community-oriented Apple Music client. This application will allow you to listen to Apple Music on Windows, Linux, and even Mac OS.
To download the application for Windows, click on “exe Windows executable”. Do not click on the “stable nightly and windows” option, as it costs $2. This is open-source software, so it’s technically free. Depending on your internet speeds, the download could take anywhere from a minute to a couple of minutes.
One thing to note is that Cider does not support lossless audio. However, it does have the ability to scale up the audio to where it sounds better than the typical AAC encoding of iTunes. If you get a warning to “keep anyway”, it’s because not many people have downloaded this application, but it is definitely a safe application. As always, it’s a good idea to scan files just in case.
Once the application is downloaded, right-click on it and choose “open”. Agree to the license terms and click “next”. If you have multiple users on your computer who want to use Apple Music, choose the appropriate option. Click “next” and then “install”. Click on “finish” once the installation is complete.
Cider will run automatically and prompt you to sign in with your Apple Music account. You’ll need to have an active paid Apple Music subscription to use this feature. It should work with any of the plans except for the Apple Music Voice Plan. Once you sign in, you’ll have access to your recently played songs, albums, artists, and playlists.
Cider offers several cool features, such as audio settings like an equalizer, volume controls, and Insider Audio Lab. The latter allows you to post-process audio and change how the output will sound to you. You can even do spatialization, which is supposed to be more or less like Dolby Atmos.
You can also AirPlay and connect to any TVs or Apple TVs that support AirPlay, set up music queue, view your music history, and more. Cider is essentially full-featured Apple Music on Windows.
Overall, Cider is a great option for those who want to listen to Apple Music on their Windows 10 devices. It’s easy to use and offers many features to enhance your audio experience.
