I don't think saving MP3s to the camera roll is the best idea. It clutters up my photos, and I prefer keeping music files in dedicated apps that are made for that purpose.
When you say to check available storage, how much space do I really need to save an MP3? Just want to make sure I have enough.
Typically, an MP3 file can range from 3 to 10 MB depending on the length and quality. It's best to have at least a few megabytes of free space to ensure smooth saving.
Can I use iCloud to save MP3s instead of the camera roll? It seems more organized that way.
Yes, you can use iCloud Drive to save MP3s. Just upload your files to iCloud, and you can access them from any device linked to your Apple ID. But note that they won't show up in the camera roll.
I just tried saving an MP3 to my camera roll following the steps you mentioned. It worked perfectly! I used the Documents app and it only took a few minutes. I like how it shows the progress of the download, which made it easy to track. I can finally keep my favorite tracks handy wherever I go. Thanks for the guide!
