Apple Music works across platforms
Apple Music is available on Android phones, Windows PCs and smart TVs, not just Apple devices. Sign in with your Apple Account to access it anywhere.
Your library may not sync automatically
After signing in on a new device, your music library might not appear. Changing a single setting in Apple Music will sync your library across all devices.
Check you're using the same account
The main reason Apple Music might not sync is using different accounts on each device. Open the Apple Music app, tap your profile picture and check the email address matches.
Enable Sync Library on each device
On iPhone or iPad, go to Settings, find the Music app and enable Sync Library.On Mac, open Music, click the Music menu, go to Settings and enable it under General.
Wait for the first sync to complete
The first sync might take a while, especially with a large music library. Leave the Music app open and wait a few minutes if your songs don't appear right away.
Force a sync if it still doesn't work
On Mac, click File, go to Library and select Update Cloud Library to force a sync.Make sure devices are on Wi-Fi and not in Low Power Mode.
Here's the gist
Apple Music syncs across devices by enabling Sync Library in settings, but you must use the same Apple Account on each device.
