I have a work Iphone 8. It's certainly not what I would ever choose in a million years. I wanted to add some more music to it tonight. I'm kind of used to how a phone should really be. You know, connect to a windows PC drag the files in, you know the regular way a decent piece of hardware should be.
So far tonight to do this, I've had to download Itunes, as my PC has been formatted. I couldn't remember my Apple ID to sign in, I tried changing my password numerous times, just to be told again and again it's not complex enough, blah blah blah...
Then this itunes just isn't playing ball, I've tried adding folders to my library but nothing is happening.
Is there an alternative to this awful controlling software? Or is it just designed to make me pay a subscription to the crap just for an easy life, despite having all my music on my PC. Or should I just buy an Android phone as this thing is wasting my time. Maybe I should buy a separate MP3 player.
It honestly amazes me how these things are so popular. Apart from a decent camera it offers nothing that a vastly cheaper Android phone has offered in the past. The way everything is locked down and controlled is just dire. I'm going to have to buy the latest Moto G7 Plus, I've been reading about it, will be worth it to keep my sanity..
I'm all for technology that makes your life easier, this just makes mine harder..
