Copy Your iPhone Photos & Videos IN SECONDS (Without iCloud or iTunes)

Is there a way to record directly to the external storage? I have an iPhone 14 Pro Max 128gb and i want to record ProRes 4k 60fps in an external storage

This is a game changer for me thank you!! Im here recording footage, then waiting until the next day to let it sync to the iCloud overnight, then the next morning I can work on it on my MacBook and from there save the files on to my external SSD. This will literally cut a full day from filming to editing.

thank you for sharing with us :)
is it possible to edit in capcut app straingt from external storage or have to upload it on iphone before?

Thank you for explaining how why extra power is needed to power up the external hard drive. I didn't realize this. Great video.

So it’s ok to delete from my phone once transferred to the flash drive?

Only just found your video ❤ @Kamani Brown 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Give yourself a pat on the back. It’s so simple to follow. Thx 😜

What is the advantage of using this lightning drive over just putting a SSD adapter straight into the iPhone that's the big question? Is this faster?

So helpful thank you! But what if I want to transfer 30k plus videos and pictures from iPhone to my external hard drive (seagate) what would be the best way? Would I need to use a PC or Mac? Could you make a video on that please ?🙏🙏🙏

Thank you, this was very helpful I watched a lot of videos but this one was the most clear an comprehensible 😊

My hero Kamani

Thank you

Can i copy 4k videos with this method ( HEVC) 4k

I can’t get my external hard drive to show up on my files on my iPhone? Even though it works with my computer and I have it plugged into extra power?

You made are life easier when it comes to video and photography

Please answer this question. Can videos be transferred to the USB using this adapter and be read and seen on the iPhone after being transferred?

When I was growing up, my mother always taught me to be a gentleman. Give her nice compliments, open the door for her, give her flowers, walk her to the door when you drop her off at home etc. etc. But over the years, more often than not, I have found this to not be the case. I can’t count how many times I’ve seen some of the sweetest most beautiful women go for the less cordial guy. In fact, many of them seem to go for the all out colossal jerks!! I’ve seen this so many times I lost count! It’s mind boggling! There’s a lot of good guys out there who try to be a gentleman and do the right thing, only to be embarrassed, belittled and face rejection, while watching her go for the jackwagon who treats her like crap, leaving the nice guy wondering where he went wrong. I’ve been trying to figure that out for years!

Hey món, what would you recommend for an IPhone15 USBA to USBC cable to use for CarPlay & charges too? Proven to work?

👍👍👍👍👍

use a powered adaptor

Copying photos and movies using Image Capture took 5 minutes for 1585 items equaling 9.46GB - iPhone 12 Pro with Lightening to Apple Mac M1 USC-C running Ventura 13.6. This included jpg, heic, mov and a few dng files (which are RAW images). If you just want to backup photos to your Mac, Image Capture is a good option.

thank you Man you are a pro!

Can you backup all your photos and videos using this method in the external ssd? For example my photos and vids are around 200gb as of the moment.

Thank you. I just tried selecting all my album photos/videos together > up arrow > Save to Files > browse then choose your external HD > Save. Worked Perfectly fine for all the album!

Cool I like this tip.
But i do thing little different 😀 I like using ICloud. And i take 1 000 of pictures. I have 5 TB pictures to my PC.
Not always from IPhone, mostly from Samsung, very easy to do from Samsung, that's just wifi share, and done.
From my IPhone, true ICloud with only 5GB (don't buy ICloud space) I sett setting to save original size on ICload and phone.
And just download picture from ICloud on PC to Hardrive make sure original size.

Ahahahahahahahahahahaah😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂. Avete scoperto il fuoco🔥 ??!?

There will be an update to fix that soon, Apple not going to let people bypass iCloud. They making millions

I have a couple old ipod touchs (6th generation), one is version 12.5.3 the other is 12.5.4. I bought a lighting male to female usb adapter to transfer photos to it via usb stick while I'm out of town and without access to my pc. I plug in the adapter and usb drive and they both light up as "on" and the ipods recognize it and even open up the photos app when its plugged in, but when I got to transfer the files, the usb device does not show up in my files app like it shows in your video. All I have on mine is "iCloud Drive" and "Recently Deleted". Do I need a third party app as a go between or something? I've also tried selecting the photos and "saving to files" but there is no option to place the photos in a folder as there is nothing under the "on my ipod" dropdown.

Can I copy my entire "photos" folder over because I have 60,000 of them?

Thank you for this amazing video. I would like to find out if PDF files can also be transferred and if the lightning to USB 3.0 works on iPad 9th gen. I plan on getting an iPad 9th generation for school, but I want to be sure first.

Awesome mate thanks for helping.
Best video so far I have seen

I try this and it only works if u transferring picture.. but whenever I try to transfer video... it doesnt give option to copy, anyone have the same problem ?

just learned something new never knew about this!

Awesome!!! I am trying to move my uploaded songs from my iphone 12 to another iPhone but I haven’t had success. I don’t own s laptop any way this can be done?

Copy each photo 1 by 1 ?🤔

Great video! I would like to ask you for advice. I have two hard drives (formatted in exFat) that I normally use on a PC. I tried to connect them via Hub to the iPad (Air m1) but they turn on without the iPad recognizing them. How could I solve it? I also changed the adapter but nothing. Let me start by saying that until some time ago they were read without the slightest problem.

Is the original date and time stored for screen records/ screenshots? The only way I’ve found that can do this so far is by sending them to a mac and putting them in a drive from there

But how do you download 50,000 images? That is very hard and I can't figure out how to do it.

Wow now this is really interesting and a great video!!! I have one of those adapters here and have never imagined doing what you just did, thank you so much!!!

Пользователи Айфон открывают для себя старые возможности смартфонов на андроид, правда они не знают, что такой способ будет очень медленным, ведь там установлен USB 2.0, в отличие от других флагманов на андоид.

O this is going to be awesome on iPhone 15 pro with usb C

I tried this and it just works great! Thanks for sharing this mate, really helped a lot! The only thing to really remember is to make sure the external drive is in exFAT format. I didn't do this at first and it was in FAT32 and the copying took hell of a time (20 pics around 20-30 minutes). The only thing I noticed is that why are some of the pictures saved as JPEG and most are in HEIC format?

My phone says the usb requires to much power. I guess Apple blocks it on the 12

Thanks so much I even upgraded iCloud and my phone still full. Going to try this thanks so much 😊

Will this work if you are using a 2TB SSD? How big can the SSD be in order for this to work?

does this work for iPhone videos?

Yeah I thought this was common knowledge the problem I run into is it takes soooo long to try and transfer 100k’s of photos and dozens of gb’s

That’s image by image, it’s not a viable way to backup batch images or entire library. It’s easier to backup images from iCloud or by connecting iPhone to a computer and saving the raw files from MacOS raw file app.

Thank you so much for your video. I just happened upon it today. I have been wondering how to do just what you did. I went to the Apple Store and asked them the very question, “How can I download pictures from the iPhone to free up some space. And they told me it was not possible. The only option is to upload to iCloud. Here is the kicker: Once you upload them to iCloud, you can’t delete them from your phone. If you do, it will delete the pics from iCloud too. What’s the point of iCloud if you cannot use it to store files and free up space on your phone?

Wow! Thank you so much.. you just gain another follower here.. thank you so much.
