    I can't believe the ecosystem has gotten this bad.

    I just spent *an hour*, with tutorials, trying to sync an iMovie-exported .mp4 from my laptop onto my iPhone. Apparently impossible without <rage>emailing or Dropboxing it to myself</rage>.

    Flabbergasted. I got within an inch of bouncing this phone off a brick wall. How, in 2019, is this what we're working with?

    • Same with the fact that I can plug in a Samsung phone to my MacBook Pro without a dongle but can't do so with Apple's own iPhone. Jeez.NBQ00
    • Too many inconsistencies at Apple nowadays. I can't believe Tim Cook, Jony Ive and the upper management don't notice all of this.NBQ00

    • Just import into iTunes and sync. Ffs it’s been the same for over a decade.monospaced
    • mono, I definitely tried that. whatever photos I sync through iTunes don't show up at all on the phone. total mystery.e-wo
    • Can't you just use the iCloud? That shit's pretty much instant.scruffics

    • try exporting a recording from an iphone. retardedly complex.hans_glib
    • Airdrop or iCloud should work — but admittedly for years I used Dropbox for file transfers (it does now work with Apple's "Files" app).evilpeacock
