For transferring files (photos or others) from iOS, I have been using Landrop for a while and never had any issues so far, it’s also way faster than using a cable.

I always wonder about the motivation behind these polished, high-quality programs on the App Store which are not open source, and also don't collect (much) data, neither have ads in them.

It’s open source, else I wouldn’t recommended it

https://github.com/LANDrop/LANDrop

I used it along with another called Localsend, but the later one gave me a bit of headache and crashed while transferring some large files last time I used it, but still great as an alternative too, and it’s open source as well.

Edit: Actually, you are correct, it seems they did close it! Try localsend instead.

For transferring photos from your Iphone to your Mac, you can also use the native Image Capture app.

Love LocalSend. Can be a bit finicky but for quick transfers between systems I love it. Use it so my work laptop, Linux gaming PC, and iPhone can easily pass staff around.

You figured out how to teleport people through local send?

This article is about importing photos from an SD card to MacOS

I use PhotoSync for images which works (most of the time ;) ) automatically in the background. Once or twice a month I give it a kick to make sure...
