If you want more fine control over how you transfer your photos to your PC, use an alternative. After you choose the iPad, Windows will read your photos.

With the advent of cheap cloud storage, most consumers have started uploading photos on the cloud for storage purposes. While I myself prefer Google Photos for storing all my photos, I also prefer to keep a local backup of all my photos. This also means that I take a lot of photos from my iPhone.

Since I prefer managing my photo library myself, I always manually transfer the photos from my iPhone to my PC and then sort the photos myself. On a Mac, importing photos from an iPhone is pretty easy since iTunes takes care of that. This is made even easier by the fact that iTunes comes pre-installed on a Mac.

However, in the world of Windows, things are slightly different especially since one has to manually download and install iTunes on their Windows 10 running laptop/PC. Microsoft, thankfully, has made it easy to import photos from an iPhone or iPad in Windows 10 by adding native support for the devices in its Photos app.

How to Manually Transfer Photos from iPhone to Windows 10 PC

Step 1: As soon as you plug in your iPhone or iPad to your Windows 10 running PC, you will get a prompt asking you to authorize the PC for importing your photos and videos. After tapping Trust, you will have to enter the device passcode for verification purposes.

Step 2: Now, open a new Explorer window and select This PC from the sidebar. You should then see your iPhone or iPad under the Devices section. Tapping on the device name will show you the total internal storage along with the free storage. Again, double-click on Internal Storage followed by DCIM -> 100Apple. Inside this folder, all the photos, screenshots, and videos stored on your iPhone or iPad will be displayed.

From here, you can manually copy all the photos and videos to your PC running Windows 10.
