New android user and got a question.

[hoochfisher]

The wife just switched from an iPhone 4S to a galaxys4.

When she purchases a song from the play store on the device, how do we get it to save the song to the music player on the phone? The one separate from the play store and google play.

And I don't have a PC of any type since my 2 year old decide to put a hotwheels between my laptop screen and jump on it. Yeah, yeah, I know, my fault. I left in his reach. But I surely didn't think that would happen in the time it took to take a leak!



I've got a zte majesty from straight talk that does it automatically. And I can't find anything in the menu on her phone to do it.

Thanks guys, brad

I phone is soooooooo user friendly

Yep, but iPhone and apple is also slow, less advanced, and COMPLETLY narrow minded and "inside the box" with every bit of its stuff.

Example of inside the box: her new s4 wouldn't recieve texts from iPhones because the iPhones are to dumb to recognize when a number is no longer an iPhone. She had to un register her old iPhone along with calling every single person with an iPhone and have them remove her contact and re-enter her as a new contact. All because iPhones can't differate between android and iPhones.

It automatically goes to your music player

I know. I'm talking about the plain music app. Not play music. That's the Google one and it requires data to play. I'm referring to the one that will not. Basicly the s4s version of ipod.

And no, it's not automatically transferring to it like it does my straight talk android.

I have an S4 and love it. you can "pin" the songs in the "play music" google app. that keeps them on the phone so you don't have to stream them. this way you don't use data.

when you are looking at the album view. there will be a little push pin just above the album name. click it and the song will be downloaded to the device.
