Hello. Thanks for the response. This doesn't actually resolve the problem though. In the Google system, you can set Apple Music as the default service. But. If you want content restrictions on music, the only options in the google system are YouTube and Spotify. If you activate the content restrictions, you cannot use Apple Music. However the link is established between google and Apple Music, your screen time settings for content filters are not enforced. The filters have to be enabled from the google end.

Hello switters37,


Thanks for participating in Apple Support Communities. We understand you're wanting to turn off explicit content in Apple Music while using a Google Nest. If you're using an Apple device to stream to the Google Nest, you'll turn off explicit content in Screen Time under the Content & Privacy Restrictions area: Use parental controls on your child's iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch


If you're using an Android device, when you open the Music app, tap the three dots in the upper corner and choose Settings. From here you should see the options for Restrictions. You're also able to change the settings online: Set or change parental controls in Apple Music on the web


We hope this helps.


Take care.
