Drag and drop music to iPhone

[Sheridan]

I still rather manage my own music collection and often buys CDs as well as MP3s, so I like to just copy the albums to my phone to suit me. Recently though with iTunes being replaced by Finder for this in MacOS I've found it really frustrating to use, if not just a total bugfest!

 

When you drag and drop music files, sometimes it freezes (even though no other actions are being performed) so the green 'plus' doesn't appear for a good while. Other times it copies an album, but orphans files into Unknown Album or similar (despite the tags all being set to the same - several times!)

 

So what does anyone else use to copy music to the iPhone? I'm so sick of the buggy drag and drop, and the repeated failure of my iPhone to stay connected to wifi/data etc I'm started to drift back to android again, especially with the new OnePlus Nord at a tempting price!

I can only concur, though I reluctantly use iTunes with my phone. I use a pair of iPod classics in my cars - I manage these with Winamp (remember that?) which is massively more reliable.
