Your Bleepin' Docs
Alright, so iOS 11+ dropped this thing called the Files app—basically your digital junk drawer where you can wrangle docs & data from Dropbox, Microsoft OneDrive, & basically anywhere else you've been hoarding your stuff. Back in the stone age (ancient iOS), we called this "storage providers." Plot twist: OnSong can now yank files from or shove files into your fav cloud spot, even if we didn't build a direct door to it ourselves. Shizzle.
Gotta Download the Right Apps First (Obvi)
If you wanna import/export to these cloud joints, you gotta install apps that actually support iOS storage providers so they show up in Files. There's no mega-list of which apps are down with this, but here's the usual suspects:
Pullin' Files In
Wanna grab songs from the cloud? Tap The Song Hamburger » All the Hits then smash that + button to Add Some Bangers. Tap Files & boom—you get a janky window with whatever cloud app decides to show up. iCloud Drive is the default (because Apple). Wanna switch providers? Tap that little icon in the top-left corner. Hit More to unlock apps you've already installed. Radical.
Flingin' Files Out
Ready to export? Tap The Share Button from the top & pick Throw It Somewhere Else. Tap the folder doodad in the bottom-right & go Files. Pick your file format(s) like you actually know what you're doin', then tap Export up top. OnSong opens the cloud window again. Pick where you want your stuff to land & BOOM—done.
The Sad Limitations (Sorry, Not Sorry)
Yeah, there's some annoying stuff about storage providers. Story of our lives.
- Once Files opens, every cloud app does its own thing. So importing & exporting feel slightly different each time. It's like every app read a different instruction manual. Probably.
- Depending on your iOS version, the Files interface might be too lazy to import/export multiple files at once. So you get one file at a time on import, & everything exports as a ZIP for export. Maybe they'll fix this someday. Probably not.
- You're stuck with whatever apps support this extension & whatever you've actually installed. Revolutionary.
