It doesn't matter if you need to switch your account type or cancel your subscription altogether, you need to be able to manage your Apple Music account on all of your devices. Good thing, then, that Apple makes it fairly easy to do just that.
Whether it's on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac, here's how you manage your Apple Music account.
