Apple services and apps are no longer available exclusively on Apple products, and it is not a massive surprise as the tech giant also knows that users are going to want to listen to their Apple Music playlists on Chromebooks, watch Apple TV+ shows without purchasing an actual Apple TV, and more.
Although Apple devices still offer the best experience for Apple services, and not every Apple service can be accessed on non-Apple hardware, you can still get these apps on devices not made by the tech company.
Apple Music
Apple Music is regarded as Spotify's biggest competitor, and it is the first Apple app to appear on Android. If you are an Apple Music subscriber and if you have an Android device, you can install Apple Music for Android to get all of the contents.
Users need to be Apple Music subscribers to be able to use the service. The app will then show tracks that you have purchased from the iTunes Store and tracks that you have imported into the Music app on macOS or iTunes on Windows, but you can't run the app at all unless you are paying the $10 a month subscription.
Apple Music on the web is also now available, it is a very useful option if you are trying to get at your playlist from a Chromebook or from a computer where you can't access your music library from a desktop application.
You do not get advanced features like offline syncing, but it is another way to access Apple Music from any computer, Mac or other device, as per Wired.
Apple TV
The Apple TV app has movies and original shows that you have bought from Apple and everything on the Apple TV+ streaming service.
The app is different from the physical Apple TV, which then remains the best way to get your Apple videos on the big screen.
As for the music, iTunes for Windows is the best way of getting at Apple TV on computers running Microsoft's operating system. iTunes has been replaced by Music and TV programs on macOS, which will happen on Windows too, but Apple has not made the switch yet.
If you head to the Apple TV+ website, then click Sign In, you should be able to access Greyhound, Ted Lasso, and everything else, according to Tech Investor News.
iCloud and other services
The first port of call for using iCloud from Windows computers and Chromebooks should be iCloud on the web.
Everything from the Apple inbox that you have to online versions of Numbers, Pages and Keynote is available, and you can just sign in with your Apple credentials to access it.
If you are on Windows, you can download and install the iCloud for Windows client, which will sync iCloud Drive files, videos and photos from Apple Photos and more to your PC.
You can also sync your iCloud passwords and your Safari bookmarks to Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge too.
