It is a trouble for many Apple Music users – you may find a favorite song and want to make it as your alarm to wake you up in the mornings. However, when Apple Music songs are highly protected by DRM, it is not possible to do it directly without extra help. So in today’s article, it will mainly teach you the correct ways to set Apple Music on iPhone/Android. If you also change your alarm to your favorite Apple Music songs, just have a look now!
How to Set Apple Music as Alarm Directly on iPhone
For iPhone users, setting Apple Music as the alarm is a simple thing because the “Alarm” app installed on iOS devices can directly allow you to pick a song from the Apple Music library for setting as an alarm. However, you need to make sure that the Apple Music songs are downloaded in your library, or you will still fail to do it. This also means that setting Apple Music as an alarm on iPhone needs an Apple Music membership subscription. If you have been a member and saved some offline Apple Music songs, you can follow the steps here to set any of them as an alarm on your iPhone directly.
Step 1. Open the “Clock” app on your iPhone and select the “Alarm” section.
Step 2. Now, click “+” on the top-right corner to add a new alarm. Or you can select the existing one and click “Edit” to change its sound.
Step 3. Then on the alarm editing page, choose “Sound” and find the “Pick a song” button in the menu.
Step 4. When the app shows your Apple Music library, directly select a song to set as an alarm.
Step 5. After choosing the Apple Music song, click “Back” and tap “Save” to finish the setting.
