## About

Apple's music streaming service with over 100 million songs and curated playlists

## Activity summary

Accessible in Syria as of July 2026. Early testing in February 2026 found playback and library editing blocked, full access was reported in March, and April testing showed availability varying by internet provider. Community testing in July 2026 confirmed playback, browsing, and personalized content all working, so the status moved from limited to accessible. The restoration is organic and no outreach to Apple was made.

## Community reports

- 2026-07-29 — Fully Unblocked. Apple Music is now fully accessible from Syria. The partial availability recorded in April 2026, where playback failed on some Syrian internet providers while working on others, is no longer reported. Access was restored without any outreach to Apple and the cause is unattributed. Status updated from limited to accessible.
- 2026-07-29 — Verified. Community testing from Syria confirmed that Apple Music is working fully. A track played normally with the transport controls active, and the Home tab loaded personalized content including Top Picks, curated mood playlists, and a Recently Played history. The community member reports the service working over both STE ADSL and MTN mobile data, with Apple Music Radio functioning, on an active subscription.

- 2026-04-17 — Verified. Community testing from Syria confirms that Apple Music now behaves inconsistently across ISPs. On Tarassul ADSL the service works fully — browsing, playback, and downloads. On Nas ISP ADSL, track playback fails with a «resource unavailable» error and browsing is blocked. On MTN mobile data, streaming and browsing work but offline downloads sometimes fail. Status updated from accessible to limited to reflect the partial availability.

- 2026-03-29 — Verified. Community testing confirmed that Apple Music is now fully accessible from Syria. A user successfully played music through the app, demonstrating that the previously reported playback restriction has been lifted. Earlier testing in February 2026 had found that while the website loaded and sign-in worked, music playback and library editing were blocked across ADSL, MTN, and Syriatel networks.

- 2026-02-11 — Investigated. Community investigation from Syria: The Apple Music website loads and sign-in works, but music playback and library editing (creating/editing playlists, liking songs) are all blocked. Tested on ADSL, MTN, and Syriatel networks. (evidence: https://api.unblocksyria.com/files/evidence/z9cwyk0hirsvk0pwjac5d0nd/mgpnott1jaz1jnjtmeeo1wc2-screenshot-2026-02-11-221519.png)

## Context

These are geo-restrictions the companies applied themselves, not filtering by Syrian ISPs and not a legal requirement. US and EU sanctions on Syria were lifted in 2025.
