The disconnect between macOS and iOS is stark in this particular area. All of iTunes functions on the desktop are split into 4 or 5 apps on iOS (Music, Videos, App Store, etc.) and then on desktop you have the behemoth iTunes instead.
And yes, there's also: Backup Manager for iOS devices, and, somewhat unique to me as an iOS developer, iTunes also holds the keys for me to be able to build to my devices which is all kinds of fun let me tell you.
I hope at some point they revisit iTunes and re-do it completely but that seems like something Steve Jobs would have to push through. As much as I get annoyed with the deification of that man (frankly he as just a really good salesman, nothing more) I think a majority of long time Apple users would agree that their software has taken a hit in quality since his passing, the debacles with iOS 9 and 10 updates bricking various portions of the iPhone comes to mind.
