iPhone Photo Backup, Without the Cloud

Editorial interest 84/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A browser-based tool that copies photos from an iPhone to a folder on your computer over USB.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-06 issue.

Field notes

The workflow exposes unusually concrete controls for a small browser utility: users can select albums or named people, distinguish duplicate filenames by folder, and leave Live Photo videos and .AAE edit files unchecked. The page reports transfer status, skipped files, connection counts, and AFC restarts during a run. It also explicitly recommends checking the network tab and says the browser can be taken offline after loading.
