Hi,

If you have an individual Apple Music subscription, you can only use one device at a time. You need to consider Family Sharing - Apple or Get an Apple Music family subscription - Apple Support

Apple Music Android no longer casts to Google Home Devices I have set Apple Music up as my default music provider on my Google Home. Up until recently, everything worked fine but then I couldn't get any music to play by either voice command or casting. I removed Apple Music from my home and re-linked and set to default music provider again. This enabled me to be able to use voice commands to play music again but I am still unable to cast from my phone. I click the cast button, select the speaker, it beeps and then.. nothing! I've just confirmed that I am able to cast Spotify and Google Podcasts with no issues, so the problem is limited to Apple Music only. Please don't make me switch back to Spotify!
