I would love this to be the case. If it really is this easy then I have failed my job as the head technologist of.. well, my family.

This is the interface I'm presented with when I open a .mp3 file in a web browser [0]. None of the available options prompts me to any file system access or the "Files" app. I've diven deep into the settings, permissions, and other menus to no avail. Am I missing something obvious?

Looking at the title bar of the app, it’s clear it isn’t Safari or even a web browser proper - what app are you using?

He also might have deleted the Files app.

Ha! You guys have a good eye. I opened it in the browser with FB Messenger, however the sharing/saving actions presented are the same when I use iOS Safari or iOS Chrome. And unfortunately, I do have Files installed.

Maybe what I'm experiencing is just an unfortunate consequence of not having upgraded my aging iPhone 6 yet.
