How To Transfer Photos From Your Pc To Your Mobile Phone

On the iPhone, you can set up a specific folder for photos and use iTunes to make the transfer. For Android devices, you can copy the photos directly to your phone or via an SD card through File Explorer or Windows Explorer. You can also sync the photos using an online photo storage site such as Google Photos, which also works on iPad and Android tablets.

USING AN IPHONE

With an iPhone, you can tap into iTunes to copy photos from a specific folder on your computer to your phone. Each time you run a sync, the photos from that folder are placed on your phone, where you can access them from within the Photos app.

First, open File Explorer or Windows Explorer. Create a new folder to store the photos you want synced from your computer to your iPhone. In my case, I created a folder called Photos for iPhone in my Pictures folder.

Then copy the photos you want to sync to your phone to your new folder.

Open iTunes and connect your phone to your PC. In iTunes, click on the icon for your phone.

In the Settings section for your phone, click on the entry for Photos. At the Photos screen, check the box to Sync Photos. By default, the location will point to your entire Pictures folder. Click on the drop-down box that says Pictures and select Choose Folder.

At the File Explorer or Windows Explorer window, browse to and click on the folder that contains the photos you want to sync and then click on the Select Folder button.

When you’re ready to sync, click on the Apply or Sync button at the bottom of the screen. Wait for the sync to complete.
