Yes, you can snag Apple Music free for three months
Tired of the ads on free music streaming services interrupting your listening sessions and ruining your playlists? We get it, and it’s one of the main reasons we’re happy to fork over more than a tenner each month for ad-free listening. If you’ve been tempted to pony up for a proper music platform, though, you don’t have to jump into paying full price right away. We recommend finding a free trial, and we’ve just come across a fantastic promotion on Apple Music.
Usually, Apple Music offers a month-long test drive of its service, but if you go for it right now, you can get a three-month free trial as a new subscriber. This will allow you to get used to the service without worrying about the price.
There are many reasons why we recommend Apple Music, especially for those of us in the Apple ecosystem. It’s one of the most popular music streaming services for good reason, and it offers high-resolution files without forcing you to level up to a different payment tier. If you’ve got a pair of AirPods, an Apple TV, an iPhone or an iPad, there several other benefits that make it the best music streaming service for Apple fans. Why? More on that below.
What’s the deal?
We’ll keep this straightforward and to the point. Apple Music costs £10.99 per month, but there’s always a trial to get your first month for free. It’s a great way to test out the platform and find out if it’s right for you. Right now, you can get Apple Music free for the first three months of your membership. That’ll have you listening without paying a penny right up until you’re readying to put the Christmas tunes on. You can redeem the offer if you’re on an iPhone, iPad, or Mac running the latest software – just tap the link below to get started.
When does the offer end?
You have until August 21, 2023. After that, the offer won’t be valid anymore. You’ve been warned. Our recommendation? Don’t wait around. Sign up now and you’ll have ad-free high-res music until mid-November.
What sets Apple Music apart?
There are a number of key reasons why Apple Music gets our vote over much of the competition
Seamless compatibility
Apple Music is the ideal service for anyone using several Apple devices because it’s already built-in to your Mac, iPad, Apple TV, iPhone, HomePod and more. It’ll work effortlessly with Siri too – you’ll find you don’t need to specify what service you want the voice assistant to play from, you just say “Hey Siri, play some dance music” and it just works.
High-resolution listening
Apple Music gets you access to a massive library of high-resolution files that you can listen to at a lower cost than premium tiers on some other services. The full library of over 100 million songs and 30,000 playlists rivals what’s available from the competition, but you’re also getting all of that catalogue available in lossless audio at different resolutions.
In practice, over 20 million tracks are offered at “Hi-Res Lossless” (aka 48kHz to 192kHz) – these files take up more bandwidth and storage but sound better than CD quality. Classical fans also get an entire app full of works, composers, artists and recordings at high-resolution quality without paying anything extra
Spatial audio
There’s a growing collection of music designed for 360-degree surround sound listening via the “Spatial Audio” feature available on certain AirPods, HomePods and Beats headphone models. It’s an engrossing and immersive way to dive into your favourite albums and we promise you’ll be able to hear the difference.
Also, you’ll find a huge amount of music rerecorded for Spatial Audio with Dolby Atmos, which works differently in that there is no head tracking. Because of this, you can enjoy this experience without requiring a set of Apple headphones. Now that’s something you won’t find on other services.
Am I eligible for the trial?
This is an offer exclusive to only brand new subscribers to Apple Music. If you have previously signed up for the service – or have ever had Apple One or access to Apple Music through a Family plan – you’re not eligible for the three months of free music.
How to listen to Apple Music
The good news is that the Apple Music app is already pre-loaded onto your Apple devices, so you won’t have to search for long to find it. You can also listen to Apple Music on streaming devices, PCs, Sonos smart speakers, smart TVs from Samsung and LG, and consoles like the PlayStation 5 and Xbox and Amazon Echo speakers too. Yes, you can even listen on Android phones.
How to get a six-month free trial
Three months sounds great, but six months is even better, right? For new subscribers, it’s possible to get half a year of Apple Music for free, but only if you buy an eligible Apple device. The good news? There are a whole load of devices relevant to this promo. Pick up a pair of AirPods, a HomePod or some Beats headphones, and you’ll be eligible for this whopper of a trial. We wholeheartedly recommend it. Here’s a full list of the devices where this extended trial is available:
AirPods: AirPods Pro, AirPods (2nd generation), AirPods (3rd generation), AirPods Max
HomePods: HomePod, HomePod mini
Beats headphones: Beats Studio Buds, Powerbeats Pro, Beats Fit Pro, Beats Studio Buds+, Beats Studio Pro
