<h2> How to Add Specific Songs to Your iPhone macOS Mojave and earlier </h2> With iTunes now in manual syncing mode, you can choose individual songs and playlists to transfer to your phone. iTunes helps you to see how much storage space is remaining on your iPhone. Check this before transferring music, or you might max out your space and have no room for apps, videos, or more music.

If you have lots of music to transfer, it's easier to create a playlist in iTunes first. Playlists save you from repetitive work when syncing the songs you want on your iPhone. To transfer a playlist or single song from your iTunes library to your iPhone, drag and drop the item from the right pane into the left pane, directly onto the item that is your phone (under the Devices section).

For example, upload your favorite songs to Dropbox or Google Drive and use those apps on your phone to stream only those files instead of your entire music collection.
