Spotify has been the main way to listen to music using Tesla’s infotainment system for some time, without support for other music streaming services like Apple Music, Tidal or Amazon Music. Tesla announced support for other music streaming services, including Tidal in particular, during its presentation of Battery Day earlier this year.
Along with the references to Tidal in the latest software update 2020.48.26, there also appear to be options for Apple Music and Amazon Music.
they have been working on this for some time
it’s a little stub right now, so who knows when it really comes, the tide is next, I think, because it really started to populate things. pic.twitter.com/du3TG1QYRX

Although Tesla has been working on “Apple Music” support for some time, the hidden option in the software update still does not work. Despite this, Tidal is expected to be the first additional music streaming service to reach Teslas.
So far, the only automaker that has directly integrated Apple Music into its infotainment system has been Porsche, for its all-electric Taycan model.
