Connect Google Maps to Apple Music on iPhone

Even though Google and Apple are arch-rivals, the former almost never misses any chance to please iOS users. After all, Google Apps are as popular on iPhone and iPad as it is on Android. Coming back to accessing Apple Music playback controls from Google Maps, ensure that you have subscribed (or using the trial version) to the music-streaming app. That’s the only requirement you need to keep in mind before getting the most out of this integration.

  1. Now, tap on your profile icon at the top right corner of the screen.

  2. Next, select the “Settings” option.

  3. Next up, choose Navigation. 

  4. Up next, tap on Music playback controls. 

  5. Now, select Apple Music. 

  6. Next, a popup will appear saying, “Google Maps would like to access Apple Music, your music and video activity, and your media library. This lets you see the song title, artist, and album art while navigating.” Tap on OK to finish.

That’s it! Now, quit the settings. The change will come into effect immediately allowing you to control Apple Music right from Google Maps on your iOS device. It’s worth mentioning that you can also choose Spotify to access its playback controls from Google Maps.
