Additional syncing options for Android

Since I've moved into halls at uni, I'm on the shared WiFi and I'm guessing this is why I can't sync my playlists between my laptop and my phone even though they're connected to the same network. Why can't Android users also sync their playlists using a USB cable like Apple users? It would be so incredibly useful and more reliable.

Hi, you are correct as to why you cannot sync. As for USB connection, only old non-wifi devices like the iPod can sync over USB. WiFi enabled Apple devices have to go via the WiFi like any other.

 

 

There is an adea in the 'Ideas' section for this. I suggest you go to the post and add some kudos to help raise its profile:
