Choose Apple Music for music, Apple TV for movies and TV shows, Apple Devices to manage an iPhone or iPad, or iTunes for podcasts and audiobooks. Which apps and features are available can depend on your country or region.
Which Apple app should you download?
| What you want to do | App | What it handles |
|---|---|---|
| Listen to or manage music | Apple Music | Your music library, including music bought from the iTunes Store. |
| Watch or manage films and TV shows | Apple TV | Movies and TV shows in your library, including Apple TV app purchases. |
| Manage an iPhone or iPad | Apple Devices | Sync, back up, update, and restore a connected Apple device. |
| Listen to podcasts or manage audiobooks | iTunes | Apple directs Windows users to iTunes for podcasts and audiobooks. |
These apps have distinct roles rather than one being a universal replacement for the others. If you do not install Apple Music or Apple TV, Apple says you can continue to use iTunes for all media. For the current division of tasks, see Apple’s guide to how iTunes is changing on PC.

How to install Apple apps on Windows 11
- Open Apple’s Windows download guide and choose the app you need. Apple’s official download route for these apps is Microsoft Store.
- Follow the link to that app’s Microsoft Store listing and select the option to get or install it.
- For Apple Devices specifically, you can open Microsoft Store, search for “Apple Devices,” select the app, then choose “Get.” Apple’s Apple Devices installation guide gives these steps.
- Open the installed app and follow its prompts. To manage media with Apple Devices, Apple says Apple Music and Apple TV must already be installed.
To check for app updates, use Microsoft Store. If you have trouble downloading or managing iTunes through the Store, Apple’s download guide directs you to Microsoft for Microsoft Store assistance.
What Apple Devices can do with an iPhone or iPad
Apple Devices is the Windows app for managing a connected Apple device. Apple’s user guide covers syncing content, backing up, updating, and restoring an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. It is not a substitute for Apple Music or Apple TV when your goal is to use those apps to access or manage media.

Check availability in your region
Apple notes that app availability and features can vary by country or region. Apple Music availability differs by location, and Apple TV and some of its features are not available everywhere. Check the country or region information linked from Apple’s download guide before choosing an app based on a feature or store access.
Apple’s cited pages do not provide a complete Windows 11 hardware or build requirements matrix, so they do not establish compatibility for every PC configuration.
