Android - music, listening & pictures

[towngirl]

I still look for SD card slots and headphones jack.

I can't find new phones with either.

Must used Bluetooth, to listen.

How are people putting their own music onto their phones with no SD card slot?
(I don't use Spotify)

I also use the SD slot for pictures from phone to laptop.

How do you get them from one to the other?
I also don't use Google storage.

Thanks.

Yes, you have to download it to listen without WiFi.

Apple Music also has a feature of downloading music to listen without streaming when offline. Apple Music also has lossless quality.

Have they made it less of a pita on Android?

That's a good one. I had tried different ways to Bluetooth to my laptop or send files.. nothing worked. I should try that one.

I don't know. I don't use that feature, since I'm never in an area without coverage.
