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

By Adam Gorden Updated on June 18, 2024

apple music to discord

Will Discord have Apple Music integration similar to Spotify? Now you can connect your Spotify account to Discord and you can share with your friends the music you are listening to at the moment on Discord. Many people including me have been asking for this and we really want the cooperation between Apple Music and Discord.

- An Apple Music user from the Apple community

When you are using Discord, usually you tend to share the songs you are listening to with friends. Currently, you are able to play Spotify on Discord. But for other streaming music services like Apple Music, Discord still does not have any cooperation with them, in spite of the fact that plenty of users upvote for the coming of Apple Music. Do we have any other methods to connect Apple Music to Discord?

When you look for an answer in Discord forum, Apple community, or Reddit, you always get a negative result. In fact, there is a method for you to solve this problem that worth trying.

Part 1. Connect iTunes to Discord with iTunes Rich Presence

Unlike Spotify, which offers native integration with Discord for sharing your music preferences, Apple Music does not have a direct option to connect with Discord. However, there are alternative programs like iTunesRichPresence (for Windows) and iTunesDiscordRP (for both Windows and Mac) that allow you to stream Apple Music to Discord, filling this gap.

Note: These tools may have occasional compatibility issues with iTunes or Discord updates.

For Windows 10: Using iTunesRichPresence to Connect iTunes to Discord

  1. Visit the iTunesRichPresence GitHub page.
  2. github itunsirchpresence release

  3. Look for the latest release under the "Assets" section.
  4. Download the iTunesRichPresence.zip file.
  5. Once the download is complete, extract all the files from the iTunesRichPresence.zip archive to a folder on your computer.
  6. Navigate to the folder where you extracted iTunesRichPresence.
  7. Run the iTunesRichPresence.exe application.
  8. Inside the iTunesRichPresence app, go to the "Settings" section.
  9. Enable the "Run on Startup" option. This ensures that iTunesRichPresence automatically connects iTunes and Discord every time you start your PC, without needing to manually reopen the app.
  10. run on start up

  11. Launch the iTunes application on your Windows computer.
  12. Choose the music or playlist you want to display on your Discord profile from iTunes.
  13. Start playing the selected music in iTunes.

  18. discord profile display itunes music

  19. It will appear either as your status or under a special section showcasing the song title and artist.

For Windows 11 & Mac: Using iTunesDiscordRP to Connect Apple Music to Discord

  1. Visit the iTunesDiscordRP GitHub releases page.
  2. Download the appropriate version for your OS:

    github itunes discord rp release

    • Windows: iTunesDiscordRP.exe or iTunesDiscordRP.jar.
    • macOS: iTunesDiscordRP.dmg.
  3. Install iTunesDiscordRP:
    • Windows:
      1. Run iTunesDiscordRP.exe.
      2. If using iTunesDiscordRP.jar, ensure you have Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 1.8 or later installed. Download from Java's official website if needed.
    • macOS: Open iTunesDiscordRP.dmg, then drag iTunesDiscordRP.app to Applications or another preferred location.
  4. Launch iTunesDiscordRP:
    • Windows: Open iTunesDiscordRP.exe or run iTunesDiscordRP.jar.
    • macOS: Double-click iTunesDiscordRP.app in Applications.
  5. Grant permissions for iTunesDiscordRP to access iTunes (or Music on macOS 10.15+).
  6. Follow on-screen prompts to link iTunesDiscordRP with your Discord account.
  7. Ensure "Display currently running game as a status message" is enabled in Discord's Game Activity settings.
  8. Play music in iTunes or Music (macOS).
  9. iTunesDiscordRP updates your Discord status with song details including name, artist, album, and playback status (playing or paused).
