How to Connect Apple Music to Discord [100% Working]

Part 1. How to Link Apple Music to Discord Using Rich Presence

To link Apple Music to Discord, you'll need a tool called Rich Presence. This is currently the best workaround—it lets Discord show the song or album you're playing on your profile in real time. Once set up, Rich Presence provides powerful music-focused features. Some tools even allow others to listen along with you in voice channels, depending on their capabilities.

Note: If you're using the Discord desktop app, the setup will be smoother. We recommend the desktop version for the best experience with Rich Presence.

Option 1: Using Discord Music Presence

Discord Music Presence helps fill the gap. It's a lightweight desktop app that shows what you're playing on Apple Music or iTunes directly in your Discord status using Rich Presence. Once it's running, your profile displays the current track, artist, and album art. It works on both macOS and Windows and is often recommended in Reddit threads for its simplicity and low maintenance.

1. Go to the Discord Music Presence GitHub page and download the latest release. Look under the "Assets" section for a .zip or installer file.



2. Extract the downloaded file to a folder, then open the .exe file (Windows) or .app file (macOS).
3. Allow any permissions the app requests to access Apple Music or iTunes and Discord.
4. Open Music Presence. The app will inform you that it runs in the background and can be accessed from the tray menu to open controls and settings.

   

   • Optional tip: To check if Apple Music is enabled, right-click the Music Presence icon in the tray > Settings > Services, and enable "Use the iTunes API" for Apple Music. iTunes support is enabled by default, as are other media players.
5. Open Apple Music (macOS) or iTunes (Windows) and play a song.
6. Check your Discord profile. Your current song should now appear with the title, artist, and album art.
   • Optional tip: To customize how song info appears, go to Settings > Appearance in Music Presence and adjust preferences like showing the title, artist, or album.

   

Option 2: Using iTunes Rich Presence

While iTunes isn't Apple's focus anymore, it's still popular on Windows—and iTunes Rich Presence is made for that. This tool tracks your iTunes playback and updates your Discord status with song and artist info. It's minimal and doesn't offer advanced features, but it does include a "Run on Startup" option, so you can set it once and forget it. For iTunes users, it's a straightforward way to bring music into Discord without extra steps.

1. Go to the iTunesRichPresence GitHub page and download the .zip file under "Assets."



2. Extract the folder and run the iTunesRichPresence.exe file.
3. In the app's settings, enable "Run on Startup" if you want it to launch automatically.



4. Open iTunes and start playing a song.



5. Open Discord and click your profile icon in the bottom-left corner.



6. Your Discord status should now display the song title and artist.

Option 3: Using AMWin-RP

For those using the Apple Music app from the Microsoft Store, AMWin-RP is a more modern solution. It connects the app directly to Discord using Rich Presence and keeps your profile updated with your current music. It also supports optional scrobbling with Last.fm or ListenBrainz and allows custom update settings. It's open-source and still growing in popularity, especially among users who've moved on from iTunes.

1. Go to the AMWin-RP GitHub page and download the .zip file from the latest release.



2. Extract the folder and open the AMWin-RP.exe file.
3. Allow any permission prompts so the tool can access Discord and the Apple Music app.
4. Open the Apple Music app from the Microsoft Store (or macOS) and play a song.
5. Your current song should now appear on your Discord profile with the track name, artist, and album.
   • Optional tip: Use the included config file to customize how the song info appears and how often it updates.

Part 2. How to Play Apple Music on Discord via Music Bots

While Apple Music doesn't directly integrate with Discord music bots, some popular bots let you paste Apple Music links and stream the matching track from YouTube or other sources. It's not true Apple Music playback, but it's a practical workaround if you're just looking to share songs in a voice channel.

Note: Most bots don't support Apple Music audio directly due to DRM, but they can match the song title or use other music sources to play a version.

Option 1: Using Jockie Music Bot

Jockie Music is one of the most feature-rich bots for Discord. It supports Apple Music and more. You can run multiple Jockie bots in one server and manage music playback with commands for play, skip, queue, and volume. The command structure can take some getting used to, but once you're familiar, it's one of the most flexible bots out there. It's a popular choice in larger servers for a reason.

1. Visit Jockie Music's website or search for it on top.gg, then click Invite to add the bot to your server.
2. Choose the server you want to add it to and grant the requested permissions.
3. In your Discord server, join a voice channel.
4. Type m!play followed by the Apple Music link or just the song name. For example:
   m!play https://music.apple.com/us/album/blinding-lights/1488406714?i=1488406717
5. Jockie will search for a match (usually on YouTube) and play the audio version.
   • Optional tip: You can invite up to four Jockie bots (m1 to m4) to play multiple songs or queues in different channels.

Option 2: Using Neeko Bot

Neeko is a clean, reliable alternative that works with Apple Music, Tidal, Spotify, and others. It focuses on essential music functions—like playing songs by name or link, managing queues, and skipping tracks—without getting too complex. Its easier command setup makes it a good fit for casual users or smaller servers looking for stable music playback without hassle.

1. Go to the Neeko Bot page on top.gg and click Invite to add the bot to your server.
2. Authorize the required permissions and make sure Neeko has access to join voice channels.
3. In any text channel, type /play and paste your Apple Music link or type the song title. Example:
   /play name: Cruel Summer by Taylor Swift
4. Neeko will attempt to match the song from supported sources like YouTube and begin playback.
   • Optional tip: Use /nowplaying to see what's currently playing or /queue to check upcoming tracks.

Option 3: Using FlaviBot

FlaviBot is a newer music bot gaining attention for its wide support and simple design. It works with Apple Music, Spotify, Deezer, Tidal, direct links, and even internet radio. Features like filters, 24/7 playback, and playlist tools make it appealing for users who want a more customizable experience. While it doesn't have as big a following yet, it's shaping up to be a solid, user-friendly option.

1. Visit the FlaviBot official website or its listing on top.gg and invite the bot to your server.
2. Set up the bot by giving it permission to connect to voice and text channels.
3. In a text channel, use the +play command followed by your Apple Music track link or title. For example:
   +play https://music.apple.com/us/album/as-it-was/1614428415?i=1614428419
4. FlaviBot will retrieve a playable version (typically from YouTube) and play it in your voice channel.
   • Optional tip: If playback doesn't work, try using just the song name instead of a direct Apple Music link.

Part 3. Best Alternatives to Stream Apple Music on Discord with Official Connections

If you want to stream Apple Music on Discord but can't use Rich Presence or other tools, there's a simple workaround using ViWizard Apple Music Converter. This tool lets you convert your Apple Music songs into regular audio files that you can upload to Spotify—which works natively with Discord.

For example, I've used this method to share music in my Discord server. I converted my Apple Music playlists with ViWizard, added the songs to my Spotify account, and played them from there. My friends could see what I was listening to on my Discord profile and even join in using the Listen Along feature. Taking it a step further, I can play any transferred playlists on my hosting server, which feels almost like magic.
