One of the most requested applications by Tesla users has been seen in action!
One of the most anticipated duos in the tech world has become a reality at least for a while. As first reported by a Reddit user, thanks to an image, Apple Music was seen driving around in a Tesla Model S car.
According to the demo, users will be able to access it by scanning a QR code on their mobile to connect to Apple Music and use the app. Available images confirm that opening the QR code directs users to activate.apple.com, where they must “enter the code displayed on their device” to proceed.
A long-standing project
Although initially the footage predicted that Apple Music integration could arrive with Tesla’s annual holiday update which is expected to roll out next month. However, the author of the original videos, Aaron Cash, clarified that the demo was not made on a complete car in the Petersen Museum, but on modified firmware.

Currently, music service apps in Tesla vehicles include Spotify, Tidal and TuneInbut the addition of Apple Music will be a great addition, considering it’s one of the most popular streaming services.
East This isn’t the first time references to Apple Music for Tesla vehicles have come to light. One of them was detected in December 2020, but the code references were removed last July.
While the addition of Apple Music, via Apple CarPlay, is one of the most requested options by Tesla users, it’s also likely never to happen. At this point, it’s hard for the automaker to ditch its own operating system to allow CarPlay, but at least now we know there’s a trick to doing so.
