How to Transfer Music From Computer to iPhone & Other Tricks on Managing Multimedia Between Your Mac & iPhone

Are you an iPhone user? Then I already sympathize with you because we all know how managing an iOS device and transferring stuff to and from it is a pain in the you-know-what. An Apple solution to that is iTunes but seriously . . . is anyone really a fan of iTunes? If anything, iTunes itself is a piece of work, rather than being a solution. I remember how whenever I have to use iTunes for managing my iPhone, I end Googling how to do it. It is a very complex and hard to understand tool.


So instead of searching for iTunes guides every time I have something to use it for, I started looking for user-friendly iTunes alternatives that are much simpler and easy to get a hang of. I came across a  transfer tool for Apple devices called WALTR 2. I downloaded it, gave it a test run and it turned out to be way better than iTunes.

Where Can I Find the Transferred Files in My iPhone?

After you see the “Done” notification, pick up your iPhone to check the recently transferred music files. Your video and audio files are automatically sorted into their respective locations in your iPhone so you won’t have to look for them everywhere in your device.

For example, a video will end up in the stock Videos app or the TV app, an audio file will end up in the Music app on your iPhone, ringtone files will be in the Settings where all the other ringtones are and the PDFs or ePubs will land in the iBooks app.

Main App Features

1.        Lightning Fast Speed

WALTR 2 is an insanely powerful tool that lets you transfer anything in THREE simple steps. Also, the entire conversion and transfer process literally takes seconds (depending on the file size of course). What’s more? You can send files automatically over Wi-Fi by enabling it from the little cog icon in the bottom right of the app. Who knew you could transfer music to your iOS devices in a FLASH?! ⚡


2.        Automatic Format Converter

The automatic format conversion is one of the most compelling features that made WALTR 2 so popular. The app automatically converts the formats into an iOS supported format:

Video formats: MKV, AVI, MP4, MOV, m2ts, 3GP, WMV M4V, FLV, MTS, TS, MPG, M2V, DV, WEBM, RM and RMVB.

Audio formats: MP3, FLAC, APE, AAC, AIFF, WAV, WMA, OGG, OGA, WV, TTA, DFF, CUE, M4R, M4B, and TAK.

So you needn’t worry about converting a file beforehand.


3.        Transfers More Than Files

You know how downloading and loading subtitles to your movies is one hell of a tedious job, especially when you are an iOS user? It is practically impossible actually. But WALTR 2 covers that for you because in addition to bringing all the metadata with the files, it also supports .srt and .ass files. Meaning that whenever you transfer a file from your PC to your iOS device using WALTR 2, it also transfers the info like track name, artist, genre, duration, synopsis, cover picture, subtitles and all the other metadata. So now you can easily watch any movies with subtitles on your iPhone. So practical, right?


4.        Beyond Just A Music Transfer Tool

WALTR 2 is not just limited to music transfers. The app can also transfer the following files to your iPhones, iPads and iPods instantly.

✅ Music

✅ Ringtones

✅ Videos

✅ PDF files

✅ ePUB files

✅ AND all the metadata related to these files.

It also converts the formats for all of these files into an iOS supported format on-the-fly.

Conclusion

Combining functionality and ease, WALTR 2 is basically the only app you will need to have in order to send files and multimedia to your iOS device. In three simple and fast steps, you can fill up your iPhone’s music library with all of your favorite songs!
