Tesla is an American multinational company and a pioneer in the automotive and clean energy industries. Its vehicles are popular in the world because Tesla’s vehicles have high performance and advanced autopilot assistance systems, and Tesla keeps upgrading its software system to improve users’ experiences.
With the latest 2024.26.3.1 Summer Update, Tesla users are finally able to have access to Amazon Music directly on the car’s dashboard. Before this update, the Amazon Music app, unlike Spotify and Apple Music, is not supported by Tesla. This update is significant, integrating one of the most popular music streaming services into Tesla’s impressive suite of entertainment options.
Besides accessing the Amazon Music app on Tesla directly, this article also introduces some other methods to play Amazon Music on Tesla.
With the latest update, Amazon Music is now compatible with Tesla. Therefore, Tesla drivers can enjoy their favorite Amazon Music conveniently through the Amazon Music app on Tesla vehicles. Here is a step-by-step guide to playing Amazon Music on Tesla directly.
Step 1 Ensure your Tesla’s software system is the latest 2024.26.3.1 Summer Update. If not, please update your Tesla’s software system.
Step 2 Navigate to the media section of your Tesla’s dashboard and find the Amazon Music app.
Step 3 Select the Amazon Music app, and enter your Amazon username and password to log in and access your Amazon Music library, playlists, and stations when you are prompted to sign in with your Amazon account credentials.
Step 4 Once you are logged in, you are able to stream music directly from your car’s dashboard. Also, you can control playback and create playlists using voice commands.
To play Amazon Music on Tesla by Bluetooth, you need to make sure your phone has installed Amazon Music and that Bluetooth is enabled. In addition, ensure the Bluetooth system on your Tesla is active and ready to pair.
Step 1 Turn on the Bluetooth on your phone and make sure your phone is set to discoverable mode, which can allow your Tesla to find and connect to your phone.
Step 2 On your Tesla’s touchscreen, navigate to the Bluetooth settings. You may find it under Settings>Bluetooth or other similar menus. Then you pair your phone with the code displayed on the screen.
Step 3 On your phone, make sure the audio output source is your Tesla’s sound system. You can control playback on your phone or Tesla’s touchscreen interface.
Notes: Playing music via Bluetooth can drain your smartphone's battery more quickly than normal, particularly if the connection is unstable or you're running other apps at the same time.

USB drives are convenient for preserving files and are supported by many devices, so we can get the files stored in the USB drive anywhere and use them whenever we want.
