iTunes doesn’t list on the App Store.


There is no iTunes app on an iPhone.

  • The Music app handles playback of purchased music, and of streaming music from an Apple Music subscription (if you subscribe to the Apple Music streaming service).
  • The iTunes Store app lets you buy music downloads from the iTunes Store.


On Macs running Mojave and earlier, the iTunes application handles everything.


On Macs running Mojave and later, functions that used to be in iTunes are split between the (Music, TV, Podcasts, Books) applications and the Finder. The iTunes Store is in the Music app, but you might have to go to the Settings (Preferences) for the Music application to get the iTunes Store to show up in the Music window sidebar.


On Windows PCs, there used to be an application called iTunes for Windows. I think Apple is trying to replace that application with another one called Apple Devices.


if you read the previously-mentioned Support article

Sync your iPhone, iPad, or iPod using your computer - Apple Support

it will direct you to instructions for whichever application is appropriate for your computer.

Hi Tocaya,

Not sure what that "manually transferring" is all about. The ripping process places the files directly into iTunes. Make sure you are using the process in here: Import songs from CDs into iTunes on PC - Apple Support


Once the songs are in your iTunes library, you can sync the phone as usual: Sync your iPhone, iPad, or iPod using your computer - Apple Support
