Tip: You can connect your phone to you macbook and use build-in preview.app "File -> "import from YOUR_IPHONE_NAME" (however since the last few macos releases preview.app crashes like 50% of time when I'm importing). This only works for movies/photos though and only when using macos. Although I agree with general sentiment. I used to have android phone and I really enjoyed that you could just connect your phone with cable and browser data with any file manager. I always have a bad mood when I have to download/upload/sync something via itunes, e.g. voice recordings / pdf / documents / ebooks
