Unable to re-install Apple Music

I recently offloaded my Apple Music to free up some space and when I tried to reinstall the app it is unable to install. Please help, I’ve tried over different WiFi networks and with mobile data with the same outcome.

Have you checked your App Library to see if the Music app is still there?

(It may be that only the App icon was deleted from the home page.)

How to use the App Library to find the app:

Organize the Home Screen and App Library on your iPhone - Apple Support

To restore a built-in app that you deleted

(Delete built-in Apple apps from your iPhone, iPad, or Apple Watch - Apple Support)

  1. On your iPhone, iPad, or Apple Watch, go to the App Store.
  2. Search for the app. Make sure that you use the exact name of the app.
  3. Tap the Redownload button.
  4. Wait for the app to restore, then open it from your Home Screen.

If you have Apple Watch, restoring an app to your iPhone also restores that app to your Apple Watch.
