Apple Music has no permanent free tier and no ad-supported free version. If you search how to get apple music for free, you will only find limited trials, not lasting free access.
Free Options:
- New subscriber trial: Usually 1 month free.
- New device offer: Buy an eligible iPhone, iPad, Mac, AirPods, or Beats and get 3 months free. Redeem within 90 days.
- Student plan: Verified students get about 50% off for up to 48 months, often with Apple TV+ included.
Every trial auto-renews at full price. Cancel at least 24 hours before it ends if you do not want to pay. Check your status in Settings > Subscriptions.
Official Notice to Users:
- Tools claiming permanent free access are scams, often containing malware that steals your Apple ID or
- payment data. Using them violates Apple's terms and can get your account banned.
- Cheap "lifetime lossless" players cannot bypass Apple's DRM and are usually fake.
So if you ask how to get apple music for free, the honest answer is: only through short trials or discounts, never permanently.
