Comments on AirSync: iTunes Sync & AirPlay for Android

★★★★★ Worth every penny! Use it with double twist and iTunes match to unleash the magic!

★★★★★ Mac user here, this works perfectly for me, after trying for ages looking for ways to sync my iTunes playlists with my Android phone this works ever so perfectly. It's not plug and play, you will need to change some settings here in your iTunes to make things work, google search any issues, when you get it up and running, it's perfect! A little note, for album artwork, as a rule being a multi-platform person, I always add the artwork myself manually rather than have iTunes download it, this way no matter where you move your audio to your artwork stays with it...... Super!

★★☆☆☆ Not for large libraries or video game music enthusiasts. This app is best for small music collections full of singles instead of many large albums of multiple discs. Using Air Sync on a Mac to a Samsung Galaxy Prime J7. Sync is slow, and my phone frequently does not appear in the Mac app unless I kill double Twist on the phone, restart it, and then Scan for Devices on the desktop app. Often I will need to reboot my phone to get it to appear in the desktop app. Major changes to your iTunes library are not reflected in the desktop app or sent to the sync target. For example, I exited the Air Sync app on my Mac. Then I started iTunes and edited the Album Artist and Track Artist for all tracks on an album. Then I quit iTunes and verified these changes were in the Library XML file. The metadata on these tracks were not updated when I next opened Air Sync on the Mac and thus weren't synced to my phone. The sync does not work if you have multiple tracks with the same name on an album, even if they're on different discs for the same album. I have the 'All Sounds of Final Fantasy I+II' album on my phone that contains the soundtrack to both games. This album contains two discs. iTunes has no problem putting both of these discs under the same album even if several tracks share the same name. Air Sync can't handle this - it will upload one of the two and leave the other missing. This is because it stores the track names without track numbers - example: the third song on the second disc of an album named "Example" is stored by iTunes as "02-03 Example", but Air Sync stores it as "Example.mp3". So if the fifth song on a third disc of the same album is also named "Example" then iTunes stores it as "03-05 Example.mp3" while Air Sync overwrites "Example.mp3".

★★☆☆☆ It doesn't work - my playlist shows up but it can't play any of the music from 100 songs only 2 were sync to my phone
