About
Keep your photo library on storage you control.
PhotoAnchor copies original photos and videos directly from your iPhone or iPad to a folder you choose. Use a USB drive, local folder, or compatible file provider—without creating an account or sending your library to the developer.
YOUR PHOTOS. YOUR DRIVE.
• Back up original photos and videos
• Choose the destination in the system Files picker
• See which items are already backed up
• Back up the full library or selected items
• Follow clear per-file progress
• Stop a backup whenever you need
• Continue later without copying completed items again
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• No developer-operated cloud
• No account
• No advertising
• No analytics or tracking
• Media moves directly to the destination you select
ORGANIZED, PORTABLE BACKUPS
Files are organized by device, year, and month. A JSON manifest records backup status in a format that remains readable outside the app.
Storage support depends on the device, operating system, adapter, file system, available power, and selected file provider.
