I volunteer helpig seniors experiencing problems with Apple devices and I would welcome advice on which software application would be best to suggest for a senior with very little computer/iPhone savvy.
A senior lady logged into my session today. She owns a Samsung computer running, she believes, Windows 10 or better, has a fairly new iPhone, and wants to sync the photos on her iPhone with her Samsung computer.
I searched and found this:
There is no official Windows version of Apple Photos. However, there are a few third-party apps that allow you to view and manage your iCloud Photos library on a Windows computer. One popular option is called iCloud Photos Viewer. This app allows you to view your iCloud Photos library, download photos to your computer, and upload new photos to iCloud.
Another option is called iCloud Photos Manager. This app allows you to view your iCloud Photos library, download photos to your computer, upload new photos to iCloud, and edit your photos.
Both of these apps are free to download and use, but they offer in-app purchases for additional features, such as the ability to sync your iCloud Photos library to your Windows computer.
If you are looking for a free and easy way to view and manage your iCloud Photos library on a Windows computer, I recommend iCloud Photos Viewer. It is a simple and straightforward app that does exactly what it says it does.
And then I found this, which looks like the answer to her problem: iCloud for Windows.
The iCloud for Windows application allows you to access various services and features provided by Apple on your Windows-based computer. Here's a breakdown of what you can do with it:
4. Access to Photos, Videos, and Calendars: iCloud for Windows allows you to access your photos, videos, and calendars stored on iCloud. This is particularly useful if you're using a Windows PC as your primary device 3410.
Any suggestions from anyone?? Ideally, for her, the least complicated solution that will allow her to sync the photos on her iPhone with the photos on her Samsung Windows machine would be ideal.
