Ratings and reviews

I just got a Pixel 2 and I've been trying for the past three hours to get iTunes to sync with it. I tried doubletwist, only to find out that the app doesn't actually sync playlists, like it says it does. It syncs the songs in those playlists, and the albums, and the artists, but not the playlists themselves. This is immensely frustrating. The only reason I didn't just copy the files manually for free is that I wanted to keep all of my individual, meticulously crafted playlists intact. On top of that, it took me ages to figure out how to enable developer options to turn on mass storage to even connect the thing over the cable. When I couldn't figure it out, I tried buying the premium version only to find that the wifi sync is PAINFULLY slow, and I have fiber-optic internet so it's not an issue on my end. I feel like I'm going insane. It would take hours to copy each playlist by hand, why doesn't the app just sync specific playlists rather than each song by what album it's in??? You can select specific playlists, but it'll just individually copy each song in the playlist separately. EDIT: I let it sync with just a couple playlists for a half hour or so, and it turns out that it only shows a playlist once it's completely done syncing. That was very misleading for me and caused me to waste an hour or so looking up what I was doing wrong. Also, on Pixel 2, even if you enable developer mode, which you HAVE to do in order to enable USB debugging, which you supposedly need in order to connect over a physical cable to your computer... It still won't let you connect physically (at least on Mac). You HAVE to sync over WiFi. The free version of this app just does not work at all, if you have a Pixel 2 and/or possibly all Android 8.0 users. You have to buy the app, which for me was on sale for 8 bucks, or at least upgrade for 6 bucks to gain access to WiFi sync. And then you have to wait a very long time, like, a few hours for it to sync. HOWEVER: when you actually manage to figure it out, the app works exactly as intended, just bear in mind that .m4a and .m4b and .m4p audio files will not transfer. You'll need a converter for audiobooks in the .m4- file extension. Or just torrent the MP3. That's faster, cheaper, and easier. And the free version straight-up doesn't sync or even connect. Three stars for a very confusing and frustrating setup, followed by a revelation and relative bliss afterwards. Devs should really make an instruction manual. EDIT 2: Also, podcast functionality on this app isn't great. For that, just get Pocket Casts. LATE 2018 EDIT: I've switched to windows and the sync feature just straight up isn't working at all, it totally messes up all my playlists.

I wasted $8 on this garbage app. Where to even begin? Nothing works as advertised. The syncing from iTunes is buggy, and it deletes all old songs from the phone when I add new songs to iTunes and sync. It does not use the sd card to store music even if selected. Playlists don't sync reliably from iTunes. Airplay just stops working randomly. Their support documentation is obsolete. Contacting the developer for help yielded a message to read their support site. This is in my new galaxy note 10+.

It is as close as iTunes for Android as we can currently come. The AirSync in the Pro version can be a little cranky, but it DOES work. Great troubleshooting documentation got me beyond an issue with a later version of the iTunes Library List XML file. Would like to see them add a recognition of Podcasts in my iTunes library vs. playing them as "an artist", or syncing from their library where mine selected podcasts are available. All in all, a nice product.
