### 1/5 — No longer works.

*2026-06-24, version 3.8*

I used to use this a lot on my phone to get my photos to my laptop. However now when you click download all it does not download a zip file that actually works. Have to do it photo by photo now. Once again. An update has been done that doesn’t work happens all the time on the App Store and there’s no way back to the old versions.

### 1/5 — Recent Updates

*2026-05-06, version 3.4*

The recent updates has now made this app (which I used daily) useless. It changes the file names and file format which it never did prior the updates. Such a shame as it was one of the best but I can’t recommend it now.

### 5/5 — Great app - better to use that it’s competitors

*2021-04-14, version 2.2*

Tried a bunch of different apps like this - easy to select all 1400 photos and download them
File was large and automatically put into multiple zips 
One file across the 4 zips went missing but I could live with that

Awesome and highly underrated app!’n

### 1/5 — Adverts

*2020-04-15, version 2.2*

Can’t get rid of adverts

### 5/5 — Life Saver!!!

*2020-01-14, version 2.2*

Ok, maybe the title is a little over dramatic but when I tell you this app makes downloading photos and videos easy... It makes it REALLY easy! My husband and I had exhausted all methods of downloading photos and videos from our phones to our computer and NOTHING worked anymore! And when your phone is the camera you use for making YouTube videos you kinda really need that whole downloading process to work smoothly. Thanks for creating this app!!!

### 5/5 — Works and it's stable

*2020-01-12, version 2.2*

I was using for a long time WiFi Photo Transfer but recently with the introduction ot iOS13 it become to crash every time I load an image. That's why this app is a fresh stable alternative that simply works.

### 1/5 — Encrypted video

*2019-11-29, version 2.2*

Useless

### 5/5 — Finally works

*2019-11-14, version 2.2*

I’ve been trying for days to find an app that works easily in transferring pictures from iPhone to pc.  Some were complicated, some didn’t work at all-this app is the best by far.  I no sooner downloaded the app that it started immediately after I put in the IP address.  Perfect!

### 5/5 — Simple easy to use

*2019-01-18, version 1.90*

This app is that simple to use it’s unbelievable after paying for a app to do what I needed and found it almost impossible to use I stumbled on this app immediately deleted the other app what a waist of money out of ten I would give this a ten and strongly recommend it

### 1/5 — 🤔🤔🤔

*2018-12-25, version 1.90*

not very good at all
