Windows 10 & 11 · USB & SD · No iTunes, no iCloud

Transfer Photos from iPhone, Android & SD Cards to Windows

Plug in your phone or insert a card, and your photos land in any folder you choose—converted to JPEG so they actually open. No iTunes, no drivers, no iCloud, no account.

Works with

iPhone, Android, and SD cards

Three ways to get your photos onto your PC — connect a phone over USB or pop in a memory card.

iPhone & iPad

Plug in over USB and copy your camera roll — HEIC photos convert to JPEG automatically.

Android phones

Connect any Android device over USB and pull photos and videos straight from its DCIM folder.

SD cards & readers

Insert an SD card from your camera or a card reader and import every shot in one pass.

Features

Works with all your devices

Import from iPhone, Android phones, and SD cards over USB — one app for every source, no cloud account required.

Know exactly what transferred

Real-time counters show indexed, copied, skipped, and failed files. No more wondering if it actually worked.

HEIC to JPEG on the fly

Convert HEIC to JPEG during transfer so your photos open in any Windows app, with no compatibility headaches.

Find any photo in seconds

Automatic YYYY/MM folder structure keeps your library organized — or keep everything flat in one folder.

Transfer each photo only once

Smart duplicate detection compares by name and content. Run transfers regularly — only new photos get copied.

Native Windows experience

A fast, native Windows 10 & 11 app for both x64 and ARM devices. No iCloud, no bloat.

No app on your phone. No Wi-Fi setup.

Unlike wireless transfer tools, PhotoPiper needs nothing installed on your phone and no shared network. A USB cable won't drop halfway through 8,000 photos—built for large libraries that have to arrive in full.

Common Windows questions

No. PhotoPiper copies photos straight from your iPhone over USB. No iTunes, no Apple drivers, no sign-in.

Yes. Photos move directly from your device to your PC over the cable—nothing goes through iCloud or any cloud account.

iPhones save photos as HEIC, which Windows can't open without an extra paid codec. Turn on HEIC → JPEG and PhotoPiper converts each photo as it transfers, so they open in any Windows app.

Yes. The installer is code-signed by a verified publisher, so there's no "unknown publisher" warning. The Microsoft Store version is additionally sandboxed and auto-updating, with no SmartScreen prompt—the smoothest option if you'd rather skip any first-run warnings.

Yes. PhotoPiper ships a native ARM64 build alongside x64—no emulation—so it runs natively on Snapdragon and other ARM Windows devices.

Yes. Connect any Android phone over USB and PhotoPiper imports photos and videos straight from its DCIM folder—same workflow as iPhone.

Yes. Insert an SD card or card reader and PhotoPiper imports every shot in one pass—handy for camera cards, not just phones.
