Using iCloud with an iPod touch 4

Hello everyone.


I have an old iPod touch 4 running iOS 6.1.6 which has a lot of music on it.


I'd like to copy that music to my iPhone 11 running iOS 17.4.1.


Is that possible? I haven't got a mac desktop so I was thinking I might be able to use iCloud but I can't get access to iCloud from the iPod.


If not possible, are there any other options? Airdrop?


Thanks in advance for any advice.

There is no way to transfer the music from the iPod to the iPhone without a computer.


Airdrop is not available on an iPod running iOS 6.


If you have a Windows PC, with iTunes or the Music and Devices apps then you can add the music from the iPod to the Music library on the computer after extracting it from the iPad, and then sync it to the iPhone from there.
