I really dislike iTunes. I've been using Apple products since 2010, and it’s one of the least user-friendly interfaces I’ve ever encountered. Honestly, anyone at Apple who insists on pushing it is heading straight into trouble. All I want is to connect my phone and upload MP3 files. Why is this so complicated? I’m constantly trying to sync them through my “music library,” but they don’t appear in the music app on my phone. When I search for their names, they start playing, yet they still aren’t listed. I even tried moving a MP4 movie to my iPad, but it keeps saying the sync succeeded without showing up. No error messages. I’m tired of Apple’s cloud services and planning to switch to Android as soon as my contract allows. For now, I’m stuck with my iPhone and need an app that works offline. Do you know any good options besides Spotify? I don’t want to use something like Spotify because I already have my own MP3 files, and most of them aren’t on Spotify. I just want something that doesn’t require internet access.
I personally use MusicBee. It's easy to use and straightforward.
