In the last Tesla software update, Apple Music integration has been added. However explicit content cannot be played although I have it allowed on every device of mine and even on Apple Music website. Anyone has any idea how to toggle explicit content filtering off?
Change content restrictions
, click the My Account button (it looks like a photo or monogram) in the top-right corner, then choose Settings. Change content restrictions
, click the My Account button (it looks like a photo or monogram) in the top-right corner, then choose Settings. Easy fix tant worked for me.
disconnect account and reconnect again
through the Apple Music app on Tesla. To disconnect, click on the humanoid icon upper right corner on the Tesla console
which tesla software version are you on? There is no option about explicit content on the Tesla media player for Apple Music, only for tidal, at least as in 2022.44.25.3.
still waiting for a fix.
Probably also region-based issue.

Thank you for the answer! I’ve already tried doing that. But if you look carefully it says that those settings only apply to ‘Apple Music on the web’ while the AM on Tesla media player, while HTML based, is still considered a third party app. My guess is that, as there is no way to change that setting as for now, the app must default to enable or restrict that type of content. That’s why I heard in Tesla forums that some people have those songs available and some other don’t.
Version 2023.6.8 Works!!!
+1 on Apple being really bad with explicit content management (it should be an Apple ID global setting)
I had a similar issue when I had my new iPhone there was no way to play explicit content even with all restrictions set to off.
The workaround was to subscribe to a Podcast to finally have a pop-up to authorize explicit content on my device…
Glad to hear it’s not only on my side. It comes down to stupid explicit content management in Apple Music. Each and every device or app connected to the account has to get permission to access explicit content. As Tesla hasn’t built a setting page into the app, probably those songs are blocked by default. If only there was a single button in account settings in Apple Music account. Now a new Tesla software has been released, let’s see if that is helpful.
Software version 2022.28-14046. On my Tesla it shows explicit content affects Tidal and Streaming only. But you would think turning off at the account level for Apple would prevent the explicit lyrics.
I believe that you’re streaming Apple Music from your phone as Apple Music has been added as a native app inside Tesla media player only in the last Christmas update, from software 2022.44.25.1 on. Actually Apple Music doesn’t provide a generale toggle to enable or restrict explicit content at the account-level, so we’ll probability have to wait for the toggle to be added in a future software update, as they did with Tidal. I reached out to Apple support to discuss the issue and told me it must be on the car’s side.
Not at all! :(
just installed latest firmware 2023.2.11 but it didn’t do the trick… tried many times to reboot, signing out and back in, playing with settings in Apple Music both on device and in the web. Just nothing…
I have the exact same issue.
Apple said it’s not on their side…
Tesla is still looking for a solution.
Have you opened a case with Tesla as well?
Yep I have the same issue.
on my iOS devices the explicit songs are greyed out because of Content Restrictions setting.
Same here! I don't even have the toggle shown in photo. 24.3 didn't help. I'm searching all over the internet and in each and every Apple Music support page or setting, but I just can't help it...
I even found a post on teslamotors.com with a user saying he's doing just fine listening to explicit content on Tesla Apple Music...
I just turned on explicit content filter at the Apple account level for all of my devices. I am logged in directly on my Tesla using the Tesla Apple app. I will now test shortly and let you know if this worked.
Same for me it is soooo frustrating, I cancelled my Tesla premium connectivity.
It has been 3 updates and still the same issue, I start to think that nobody is looking into it… my Tesla is now on 2023.2.11
What about you guys ?
