How to Add Music to iPhone Without iTunes

The iPhone has a lot of features, but it has a disadvantage when it comes to downloading music, especially if you don’t want to use Apple’s iTunes music player software. This is the only way to officially sync media files with iPhone, and the new iOS update has blocked most other unofficial ways. Safari also doesn’t let you download MP3s from the web. But fortunately, you can still download music in a number of other ways without using iTunes.

Create a Google account. If you already have a Gmail or Youtube address, you have set up a Google account. All Google accounts allow you to upload 50,000 songs to your Google Play Music account for free. You can listen to music anywhere on the Google Play Music app on iPhone.

You can sign in to Google Play Music at music.google.com .
Signing up for a Google Play Music all-connected account offers the same amount of storage as a free account, but with unlimited access to Google Play Music’s music library.

{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/7/7a/3170486-9.jpg/v4-460px-3170486-9.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https:// www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/7/7a/3170486-9.jpg/v4-728px-3170486-9.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,” bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
