Anyone having issues to connect to apple music

Hello there,

I am new with eos and have been enjoying so far with a few challenges here and there (two of them being the banking apps and the link to my car without google).

In particular I have been trying to connect to my apple music account (I m a former
apple guy and wanted to change since I m big old fan of Ubuntu on my PC - so was looking for a similar approach re. my phone), unfortunately although the app starts I can’t get to the login part and keep seeing a little circle turning. Has anyone faced that issue by any chance and figured it out? I have tried accepting the trackers but didn’t work any better… if anyone has an idea how to manage this, happy to hear it.

I am using an sm-a725f and e_a72q-user 15 BP1A.250505.005 eng.root.

Thank you in advance and happy to be part of that community now.

Ps: I have checked if that matter has been raised in the past here and on other websites but no luck, so I hope I haven’t missed a discussion already open here.

So I’ve noticed Apple appear to have issues with VPN usage… it could be that… try switching VPN to your own country, or off altogether, and then restart the app. If it works, then it’s a VPN issue - you could try split tunnelling if your VPN app has that (then reactivate all the tracker blockers lol and see if that still works).

Hope that helps, somewhat! :slight_smile:

Thanks a lot for the tip! Unfortunately I haven’t turned on my VPN. Though worth mentioning it in case the issue appears for those with the VPN on. Thanks again!

Hi, I have the same problem, have you found a solution?

Unfortunately my solution has been to use OpenTune (which is great).
Nonetheless, I have tried allowing all the trackers for apple music which didn’t make it work anyway. I haven’t tried yet using a gg account rather than the anonymous connection on the app lounge or magisk. I ll do the first one soon and report back. For magisk, I see a lot of posts about it but don’t fully understand the tool (except for the rooting aspect of it) and the “risks” associated to it. Thus it might be my last solution.

I found a temporary solution today.

I can log in at “apple music web” in the browser and make a shortcut on the home screen. Not perfect but it’s working.

Thanks a lot! Smart idea! I have also tried using a gg account on the app lounge but no change… Will try at some point magisk if I find the motivation.

Today I got the app to work!

I login on a spoof goggle account in the microG settings.

Before I only tried this in the App Lounge.
