Transfer .Mp3 file from Logic Pro to iPhone

Once bounced, outside sending it to the cloud and waiting for "Music' to pick it up, is emailing or messaging the only way to listen to the file?


Appreciate any advice.


Thanks.

Hi, basically the best option is to add the mp3 file to your iTunes (Music) library and let it sync with the music library on your iPhone (if it's set to sync automatically). You could also add it to your iPhone Music app's library manually, if auto sync is disabled, for example. To do so, connect the phone to your Mac via USB cable, open Music app on your Mac and when the phone is connected and displayed on the left side of Music app, manually drag the mp3 file there to add it.


And, yes, it's a hassle and a major issue with iOS since times immemorial. For some unknown reason simply sharing an mp3 file via AirDrop isn't good enough to add tracks to sound library on an iPhone (as far as I'm aware, more iOS literate folks may correct me here, of course). Literally, a song and dance with USB cables, etc. is required. Bloody shame, if you ask me. Alas, c'est la vie (pardon my French)!
