Dolby Atmos on Apple Music Android TV app (Chromecast)

Hi !


I wish a lot enjoy to play my Dolby Atmos music on my Dolby Atmos receiver ! I have a Google Chromecast HD but the Apple Music is not available ... If I Understand, Atmos is only available on Apple TV :( And it's not supported on PS5 app too (While PS5 can read Atmos !)


Any plan to bring Atmos to PS5 or Google TV ?


pleeeeeeeease Apple !

I think I'll turn to Tidal reluctantly waiting for this ...


Thx you !


My complete configuration:

TV: Samsung QLED 2018 55" With Tyzen OS

Media Receivers:

  • PS5
  • Chromecast HD with Google TV

A/V receiver: ONKYO TX-NR575E (ATMOS compatible)

Just so your team and Apple are aware, Dolby Atmos is compatible with the users devices, and unless Apple specifically breaks that functionality, it would be compatible with an infinite number of devices the support Dolby Atmos now and into the future.


There is no such thing as an approved list of devices, since Dolby Atmos is a licensed standard and works on any Dolby Atmos device.


If Apple has purposefully broken compatibility with all devices except for the ones they list, it seems there is an issue with project goals and going against Apple's ethos of making things "just work."
