Part 2. How to Transfer Music from iPhone to Android Using Windows

The most common way to transfer music from an iPhone to Android is by syncing your iTunes music first and using the Windows computer.

There are certain requirements before you can sync your music to iTunes. You got to make sure that your iPhone is well-synced with iTunes. If you have done this then you are pretty much halfway through the process.

After that, you need to turn on the Sync Library. Simply go to your settings and then tap Music. Toggle on Sync Library.

Now that you have synced your music with iTunes, follow this guide on how to transfer them using Windows computer.

  1. Open your iTunes and go to Library
  2. Select the tracks you wish to transfer. You can highlight the tracks and select Copy.
  3. Paste the tracks on your computer in a new folder
  4. Plug-in your Android phone and navigate to the new folder you have just created containing the music tracks
  5. Apply the same process by copying and pasting the tracks on your Android device

Part 3. How to Transfer Music from iPhone to Android Using Google Music Manager

Another easy method to transfer your music from iPhone to Android is by using the Google Music Manager. The process is similar to the two other methods above but quite a bit complicated.

You also need to make sure that your music is synced to iTunes before you can use the Google Music Manager. The step would be the same as how we did on the previous method.

To better understand and learn how to do it, follow this guide:

  1. Sync your music tracks with iTunes.
  2. Open the Google Play Music on your browser, log in with your Google account and download the Google Music Manager
  3. Launch the application after download and select ‘Upload Songs to Google Play’. Click Continue
  4. Choose iTunes on the source music and click continue
  5. Now you can choose to upload all the tracks from your iTunes or you can select songs only.
  6. Wait until the transfer is completed.
  7. Once done, download the Google Music App on your Android phone. Make sure to use the same Google account.
