The method for connecting any music app is the same.

- On YouTube Music, the app will ask you to open Waze, tap “Open”;
- YouTube Music and Waze will be connected;
- Touch “Open YouTube Music” to start playing music and playlists.
To access YouTube Music, through Waze, touch the app icon on the main screen, which will replace the musical note.
The listening to music feature on YouTube Music is only available to YouTube Music Premium or Youtube Premium subscribers. If the user has a free account, it will not be possible to play music within Waze.

- Touch the app icon connected to Waze on the main screen;

If the app is not installed on your phone, you can access the Apple App Store or Google Play Store from within Waze. Either way, the compatible music app must be installed and configured on the iPhone or Android.
