Hi,
Is it possible to control Apple Music from another device then the one playing it?
example:
I use an iPad / Mac to airplay music to my living room speakers. I have tons of Siri enabled devices (phones, Apple TV remotes / watch / stationary iPads) which I then would like to speak to changing the music on the playing device through one of them.

I use Spotify like this however since I can't control Spotify through voice commands I would like to change to Apple Music.

Thanks
/Johan
 
This is not possible to my knowledge. Apple does have an iTunes Remote app for iOS which allows you to remote control iTunes running on a computer, but it cannot be operated via Siri voice commands. It also hasn't been updated for a long time and doesn't fully support Apple Music.

Thanks for the reply. Hope Apple opens up for 3rd party support for Siri or the possibility to control Apple Music remotely in the future.
