in the us now if you live outside of the us you'll want to double check and make sure that apple music is supported on the smart speaker you're planning on using it with for homepod minis you don't need to do any setup if you have apple music but you will with amazon echo devices and google assistant devices for google assistant speakers go into the google home app select music and then link your apple music account if you're just wanting the google assistant on your android phone to play from apple music go into your google assistant settings select music and then link your apple music account for amazon open up the alexa app and i apologize for triggering your devices i can't help that's what they named this app go to play scroll all the way down to manage services and then you can link apple music as your music service for your amazon speakers and make it the default service when using apple music with smart speakers and assistants you can actually ask the assistant to play music from a specific artist play a specific song album playlist and when you use siri you can actually ask siri to add whatever you're currently listening to to your library which is pretty convenient one other device that you can use apple music with that i've mentioned before is the apple watch you can download music right to your apple watch or stream music over wi-fi or a cellular connection if your watch supports that and connect bluetooth earbuds or headphones directly to the watch and then you can play music bypassing having to use an iphone which is perfect for when you want to work out and leave your phone behind you can search for music on the apple music app on the watch but the easiest way i've found to actually get music onto an apple watch is by using the apple watch app on an iphone scroll down until you see music tap that then you can select if you want recent music to automatically be added to your watch and there you can manually add albums and playlists to your apple watch as well and note your apple watch will only download new music when connected to power and your iphone is nearby now the last thing to mention about apple music is uploading music to your library on a mac you can do this by opening up the music app and then choose file add to library or file import locate the file or folder with your music and then click open you can also alternatively drag a file or folder from finder on a mac to the apple music window to import it as well and if you have a windows computer you can use the same steps that i mentioned for mac just with using the itunes application and that's my how-to guide for how to use apple music i hope you found this video helpful if you have any questions at all still about apple music or you have any tips that you've learned along the way using the service make sure you leave a comment below and don't forget to hit that thumbs up button if you found this video helpful and useful and subscribe to the channel to see more how-to videos and apple videos like this one also we've got a free monthly newsletter so you can check that out by using the link in the description below for six months later i'm josh teder thanks for watching
