Download your photos and videos from your iPhone onto your Mac – quickly and easily and bypassing the Photos app
If you are like me, you hate the Mac Photos app like the plague but you like to periodically download your photos from your iPhone to your Mac. Well, turns out it’s easy to do when you know how.
Start by launching ImageCapture from the Mac’s Applications folder. Then plug your iPhone into your Mac using a USB port.
Inside ImageCapture, your iPhone will appear automatically in the list on the left. Select it and select a download location from the box at the bottom of the screen. Select the photos to import and click Import or click Import All to download all of them. It’s as simple as that.
