Such a lifesaver!

The most reliable app for transferring my photos! So happy I recommended it to my sister too!

Great app!

I work in creator marketing and it’s always such a pain to transfer content from my iphone to a windows device or hard drive. This app transfers so seamlessly between both devices! I no longer dread it when my phone flashes ‘storage full’ (okay maybe a bit of dread, but significantly less now).

Awesome app!

This app makes it so simple to transfer my videos off of my phone to free up space!

I would have given it 5 stars if it handled duplicate filenames better. Currently if there’s a duplicate file name, it doesn’t add a suffix, instead it just doesn’t transfer the file and it gives no indication that it wasn’t transferred.

Hopefully they fix this behaviour soon.

Great with premium

With premium its actually fun and convenient to use. Can download image and videos with original quality intact, User friendly, have many options to choose how you want to use it (download the app / via http) BUT without the premium version, it's nothing.

What does PhotoSync do?

Premium features offer autotransfer, client-side encryption, and advanced Siri support.

How much does PhotoSync cost?
