How to Delete Songs / Albums from iPhone without iTunes

The new iPhone models continue to start from 16 GB, a ridiculous figure wherever you look, since they are not real. The space really available is about 12 GB, which with four games, several photos and videos and some music. they fall short at the first change, which forces us to carefully manage everything we have stored on our device. A few weeks ago we showed you several solutions to manage storage space on iPhone, for all those who have a 16 GB device.

If you do not have a streaming music service and you depend exclusively on the Music application on your iPhone, and you need at a given moment to get space quickly, the first option to take into account is to free up storage space for this application, which we can later recover and reload by connecting our iPhone to the computer.

Free up space on your iPhone by deleting songs without iTunes

First and foremost, it is assumed that we have a copy of all music content available on our iPhoneIf not, you should make a previous copy so as not to lose it if you need storage space urgently (the quality of the videos we record with our device take up more and more space).

  • First of all we head up Settings.
  • Within Settings, click on General> Use.
  • Then click on Manage storage, where the space occupied by all the applications that we have installed on our device are shown.
  • Click on Music and all the albums that we have stored on our iPhone will be displayed.
  • To delete an album, click on Edit, which is located in the Right upper corner so that all albums show the delete sign on the front.
  • To delete the album in question, we will slide our finger to the left on the element in question, until the Delete option is displayed, an option that we will press to delete the album in question.
  • If we want delete only songs, we must click on the album where it is located (before clicking on Edit) and look for it. Once we find it, we will proceed in the same way, clicking on the Edit button and sliding our finger to the left over the song that we want to delete from our music library stored on our iPhone.

Let's see if with a bit of luck at the developer conference that Apple will hold in early June, we can see a new less loaded version of iTunes, that allows us to carry out the processes in a simpler way or that allows us to use different applications to manage music on the one hand, photos on the other, applications on the other…. So that the operation of the application is not as tiresome as it is currently.

I'm sure I'm not the only user who only uses iTunes to chat a copy of the images that I download from the device for later reference. I never use it to install apps or sync music that I have in my library, since there are other applications such as iMazing, which allow us to carry out this process in a much easier and more comfortable way than iTunes.

      You go to the music application, click below where it says albums, look for U2's and slide to the left and put delete, the songs will be deleted although the name of the album will not since it remains as a direct access to re-download them, although with the process that I mentioned they are erased and no longer take up space, a hug.

      P.S. It is less complicated to delete directly from the music application, I do not see this article sense.
