I’ve had my iPhone 13 since Christmas and I love how fast and fluid it is, but I’m dissapointed and downright f****ed off with how Apple do some things. The lack of music equaliser for Spotify is bad, but what pushed me over the edge the other day to the point where I downright snapped my cable in frustration is just how idiotic the file transfer system works.
This is my first iPhone, and my first Apple product ever. I have a PC and on android you can just drag and drop files with ease, wherever I want on my devices. iPhone however, is so convoluted, for no reason.
I’ve searched far and wide for different methods, and nothing is working easily. iTunes sucks, my phone is never recognised even when it’s connected and on the Home Screen, with both devices updated properly. I also have “keep originals” and the computer is trusted. The way to transfer files on there is disgusting anyway, as it is very restrictive! I also have tried normal usb transfer, opening photos on my pc and importing from device, airdrop doesn’t work as it says the files are too big, endless issues
I can only at the moment use wireless transfer methods like Google drive or Dropbox, but with me being a creative individual, I have some video files on my phone that total something like 50gb and I do not have the time or I simply cannot be bothered to wait as long as it will take. Especially if they are video tests, smaller videos or photos are just as much of a pain. It’s really frustrating me and I think my next phone will be android again so PLEASE someone help me transfer from iPhone to PC and back again, FAST and EFFICENTLY, WITHOUT using iTunes or airdrop.
I’d like to keep the iPhone but the way the stuff is designed, it’s REALLY hard for me to keep rooting for it. Thanks
