Can I import CD’s into Music app on an iPad?

How do I import the music on a CD into the Music app on an iPad? On my iMac I have iTunes, but this isn’t available on my iPad. The only app that appears to be available (apart from third party software) is Music and that is very restrictive. I’ve never used it because the contents are not to my taste and most of the radio stations on it are American. It doesn’t even have the BBC radio stations on it!

iPad Air, iOS 12

Music CDs can be imported into your iTunes Music Library on PC/Mac - and then synchronised with your iPad/iPhone/iPod using iTunes/Finder.

Sync iTunes content on PC with your devices – Apple Support


Synchronised media is then available for playback using the iOS/iPadOS Music App; if not already installed on your device, the App can be downloaded again from the Apple App Store:

As for BBC Radio, this can be accessed in the UK using the BBC Sounds App:

Problem solved thanks. One problem I have with the Apple support pages is that you often search for information on how to do things, but it is more than likely you will not find the right page - there's so much of it! and in line with many websites you can read as much as you like and never be certain you have covered all relevant pages.


I shall suggest some sort of index to their feedback page.
