Editors’ Review
CopyTrans Manager offers a direct method for transferring music and media from your computer to an iPhone, iPad, or iPod, eliminating the need for iTunes. By supporting drag-and-drop file transfers, it enables manual management of songs, videos, podcasts, and more.
CopyTrans Manager features built-in playlist editing tools and the ability to adjust metadata like track titles, album art, and lyrics. Recent updates include compatibility with Apple Music, letting you manage its tracks from your desktop. It eliminates the need for syncing through iTunes. You can use this if you're looking for a hands-on multimedia organization without depending on cloud services.
Media editing and playlist control
CopyTrans Manager allows direct file transfer to Apple devices. You can drag music, audiobooks, or videos from your computer into the interface, and they will be added without triggering an iTunes sync. This applies to both newly added files and edited tracks, giving you total file control. Unlike traditional syncing tools, it keeps existing content untouched, allowing for selective updates across different categories.
It includes tools to update metadata for songs and other media. You can change track names, assign genres, update album titles, and apply new artwork. Lyrics and ratings are also editable. These changes apply immediately within the manager and on your device after transfer. It’s a manual tag editor aimed at providing full control over how music appears in your device’s library, all from a single window.
Playlist support includes manual arrangement, deletion, and duplication detection. You can organize tracks in playlists by dragging them into the desired order, delete unwanted entries, or remove repeated files. These actions are accessible without opening iTunes. It also supports managing Apple Music content, allowing for custom playlists based on your synced streaming tracks, edited directly from your computer. However, it lacks support for photo or app management
