I paid for subscriptions for Apple Music and Apple News, but can only access them on one device.

I have Apple News on my computer. When I try and access it on my phone or iPad, I'm asked to pay again. How can I get Apple to honor a subscription to multiple devices, all of which are on the same account? Why isn't this automatic?

iMac 24″, macOS 14.6

subscription question I've recently signed up for the Apple Music monthly subscription. Works fine on my iPhone 13, and I have full access to the Store, but on my MacBook Air M1 when I browse the Store, I'm expected to pay, or take another subscription. Logged in with the same Apple ID on both devices. MacBook Air is Authorised. I also have no access to Radio, which suggests that somehow or another the subscription isn't being shared between devices. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Do I have to pay and subscribe twice in order to use my Apple Music account on android? Hi, when I follow the instructions for the "If you already subscribe..." section, I am still prompted in my android Apple Music app, to "subscribe" and enter payment information. Does my Apple Music subscription on Mac OS not apply to android devices? While I am able to share my account between several Mac laptops, it seems on android, despite, being signed in, that my subscription does not "count". Is this intentional double billing or am I missing something?
