Local Photo Transfer copies your photos and videos from iPhone straight to your computer — over your own Wi-Fi, at full quality, with nothing ever uploaded to the internet. No cables. No software to install on your computer. No account to create. Pick an album on your iPhone, open a link in Chrome or Edge on your computer, choose a folder, and your photos start arriving. PICKS UP RIGHT WHERE IT LEFT OFF Big transfers are safe here. If your Wi-Fi drops, your browser closes, or something interrupts a long transfer, you never start over.The app remembers where it got to: reopen it, tap Resume, and choose the same folder to carry on. Photos already saved are never transferred twice. FULL QUALITY, ALWAYS Your photos and videos arrive exactly as they were shot — full resolution, no compression, no resizing. Full quality is included in the free version too. YOUR PHOTOS STAY YOURS Everything moves directly from your iPhone to your computer over your local network. Nothing touches the internet, ever. No account, no ads, no tracking, no analytics. MADE FOR REAL LIBRARIES - Transfer whole albums, or hand-pick photos and videos - Live Photos: save the still, the video, or both - Export originals, edited versions, or both - Keep original filenames, or rename by date taken - Filter by date to grab just one trip or event - Clear progress with speed and time remaining - Optionally convert HEIC photos to JPEG, for computers that cannot open HEIC FREE UP SPACE ON YOUR IPHONE When a transfer finishes, you can optionally delete the transferred photos from your iPhone — only the ones that were safely saved, and only after you confirm. FREE TO USE, ONE-TIME UPGRADE The free version transfers up to 500 photos and videos at a time, at full quality. Photo Transfer Pro removes the limit with a single one-time purchase. No subscription — pay once, yours forever. GOOD TO KNOW - Your iPhone and computer must be on the same Wi-Fi / local network - Works with Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge on Windows, Mac, and Linux - Photos stored only in iCloud must be downloaded to your iPhone first (in the Photos app)
