Hey!
I am in search of music player app which allow me to  play and add music from my computer to the player directly, also is there any way of playing music via folder.
Adding music from iTunes is hassle for me as sinking process is not so well.

Thanks and regards.

Well, sinking music from iTunes in some way could be the same as adding music to the folder of a music player; since, if you add music manually to iTunes, you will do exactly the same thing. You will need to click add file or something like that in the case of iTunes, and you will click add file for an installed app. Anyway, I like VLC for iOS. I woould recommend it.

You can always use dropbox, Google Drive ETC and a player like VLC to sync and play files without Itunes.

I tried Foobar2000, but it was bare and baron compared to the beauty that is the desktop version. Getting music onto that damn thing seems nearly impossible (unless you want to go through iTunes, or host your music on FTP).

If you for whatever reason wish to contact me, the best way to do so is through Discord (Minionslayer#2980). You'll get the quickest response times, and by extension, a higher priority. I also sometimes post my thoughts (for the better or worse) over on Twitter at @Minionslayer2.

@5:
Oh wow. Was told that foobar on ios is inaccessible, but wanted to make sure regardless. Thanks for that. So far the app has worked seamlessly for me both on pc and on droid, but I do plan to get an iphone soonish. Will probably go for vlc too, in that case.

Abay chal.

Hi.
I'll highly recommend either File app or VLC.
File app supports ftp, transfer via web browser and lots of other ways to get both music, videos, documents and a ton of other file formats on your phone. It is fully accessible, and it supports folders as well in its own file browser.
VLC is also really good. Especially because its web browser transfer is fully accessible and extremely fast to upload. You can easily transfer multiple files just by selecting them in the open dialog in the web browser, but I don't think it supports folders, but I could be wrong about that.

Best regards SLJ.

Well, there are multiple ways of transfering music to VLC. Here is one way to do it:
1. Choose the network tab.
2. Enable: Sharing via wifi.
3. Open your web browser on your computer, and enter the web address, which is typically http:// your IP address and a port.
4. Choose the browse button on the website, navigate to the files you wanna transfer. YOu can select multiple files or even select them all if you want, and then they'll be transfered to your phone.
You can also delete files from the same web interface if you wish.
Feel free to ask if you have more questions.

Best regards SLJ.

VLC for iOS is badass! There are tons of ways to import content, including the web browser method discussed above and via SMB network shares.

The Files app in iOS 13 or later can also import content from SMB shares, though last I tried this, I couldn't figure out how to copy the files to the local storage on the device. Safari in iOS 13 or later also allows you to download any file from the Internet, so this is another way to obtain content if you wish.

Finally, you can use Apple's Lightning to USB 3 Camera Adapter to connect flash drives and SSDs to your phone. This requires iOS 13 or later, and at least on my iPhone 6s, you have to connect the adapter to a power source using a Lightning cable to provide enough power to the USB device. I don't know if newer phones provide more power, and it doesn't seem to work on portable mechanical hard drives. My suspicion is that these simply require more power than the adapter can supply, even when connected to an independent power source. You'll most likely need to get a desktop hard drive that has its own power supply in order to use these with iOS.

@SLJ
Wow I had no idea that was a thing!  Very cool...

2021-04-22 16:25:05

@Defender: You're very much welcome. Yeah I also got extremely excited then I noticed the web browser feature. It's interesting that people don't talk much about how powerful VLC is on IOS. I can't speak for Android though, but I think that's the same.

Best regards SLJ.
