Can you literally not transfer mp3s to a new phone through a USB cable and play them with an mp3 player app anymore?
A big reason I never continued with iPhones a decade ago and switched to Android. Out of the box Android lets you mount the SD card on the PC, copy whatever the hell you want to it, and use any music player to play them (including all of the built-in ones that the OS comes with).
Yeah, android is far easier for shit like this
