How to Access and Play Music Files Transferred via Xender on Your iPhone

Introduction

For users looking to transfer and play music on their iPhones, Xender offers a simple and convenient solution. However, the process for accessing these transferred files can sometimes be a bit unclear. This article provides a comprehensive guide on how to access and play music files you've transferred via Xender on your iPhone. We'll also explore the limitations and provide alternatives for managing your music on iOS.

Accessing Music Files Transferred via Xender on iPhone

Step 1: Open the Files App

The Files app is a built-in app on your iPhone, which is easy to access. Simply swipe up from the home screen to the Control Center, then tap on the Files app icon.

Step 2: Browse Locations

Once the Files app is open, you'll see a list of locations where you can browse files. Tap on the ‘Anchors’ icon (three horizontal lines) to expand the list of locations. Scroll through the list until you find the Xender folder. This folder will contain the music files you have transferred via Xender.

Step 3: Access Your Music

Tap on the Xender folder to open it. You should now see a list of your transferred music files. You can play these files directly from the app if your music player supports the format. To play the music directly, you can use a third-party music player app that supports various audio formats. Popular options include VLC for Mobile and Documents by Readdle. You can download these apps from the App Store and use them to play your music files.

Limitations and Alternatives

It's important to note that iOS has certain restrictions on file management. Unlike some Android devices, you may not be able to directly import these files into the Apple Music app without additional steps. This is due to the closed nature of the Apple ecosystem, where apps and services are tightly integrated to ensure a seamless user experience.

In addition, Xender itself has a built-in music player. If you have music in Xender, you can play it directly from within the app. However, you won't be able to transfer the music files to the built-in music app on your iPhone. If you want to use these files in a music player like Apple Music, you need to download them to the Files app first.

Conclusion

While the process of managing music files transferred via Xender on your iPhone can be a bit complicated, it is certainly feasible. By following the steps outlined in this article, you can easily access and play your music files. However, keep in mind the ecosystem limitations and consider using third-party apps to fully leverage your music files on iOS.
