’iTunes/Apple Music’ works perfectly on an iOS device, however, as discussed in many threads, Apple has ‘broken’ the ability for Android devices to set up the account. 

Fortunately, once the account has been connected, for instance by borrowing a friends device to set up the account, you can continue to use the Android device. It’s only the set up itself that fails on Android. 

To date, Apple has neither admitted the issue, nor suggested when the issue will be fixed. 

Excellent reply, thanks, didn't know it was such a big issue. Kind regards
