几年前，将照片从 iPhone 发送到Android智能手机或平板电脑并非易事。幸运的是，事情已经变得更好了，虽然不是因为苹果(Apple)，而是因为谷歌(Google)、微软(Microsoft)和其他公司为我们提供了将照片从 iPhone 传输到Android设备的简单方法。以下是我们所知道的最直接的方法：
1. 如何使用Send Anywhere等文件传输应用程序将照片从 iPhone 传输到Android
让我们从我们认为将照片从 iPhone 传输到Android的最简单方法开始。您所需要的只是为此目的而开发的应用程序。(All)有很多可用的，但我们最喜欢的是Send Anywhere。您可以在iPhone 上从 App Store(iPhone from the App Store)或Android 设备上的 Play Store(Play Store on Android devices)免费获取它。
下载并安装后，在两台设备上打开它：iPhone 和Android。在 iPhone 上，从“随处发送(Send Anywhere)”转到“照片(Photos)”选项卡，然后选择要传输的照片。点击(Tap)并拖动以选择多张照片，或打开您想要的任何照片并从屏幕右上角选择选择。(Select)
您还可以使用应用程序界面中的相应按钮一次选择 iPhone 中的所有照片，或选择特定日期拍摄的所有照片。
选择要从 iPhone 传输到Android设备的照片后，点击屏幕底部显示的对话框中的红色发送(Send)按钮。
Send Anywhere应用程序现在会显示一个 6 位数的密钥代码、一个二维码(QR code)和一个共享链接(Share Link)按钮。您可以使用其中任何一个来传输照片，但最简单的是最后一个选项：在屏幕底部，您应该看到附近所有运行Send Anywhere的设备。那就是应该列出您的Android设备的位置。(Android)您所要做的就是点击它的名字。
在您的 iPhone 上，系统会询问您是否确定要将文件传输到Android设备。选择确定(OK)。
几乎立即，Android设备应该显示 iPhone 想要传输照片的通知。接受(Accept)并等待从 iPhone 发送的所有内容在Android上被接收。就是这样！
注意：(NOTE:)如果您喜欢其他传输照片的方式，您可以尝试使用该应用程序。无论(Regardless)您选择使用 6 位临时密码、二维码还是共享链接(Share Link)选项，您都应该知道，传输都是尽可能安全的（所有传输的文件都是加密的）。有关如何使用Send Anywhere应用程序的更多详细信息，您还可以查看其支持页面(support page)。
2. 如何使用Google Photos等照片应用程序将照片从 iPhone 传输到Android
将照片从 iPhone 传输到Android的另一种方法是通过Google的照片(Photos)应用程序，您可以从 iPhone 上的App Store获得该应用程序。您要向其发送照片的人还必须在他或她的 Android 设备上安装来自Play 商店的(Play Store)Google 照片(Google Photos)应用程序（如果他/她还没有）。
在 iPhone 上，使用您的Google 帐户(Google account)（您的Gmail地址）登录Google 照片(Google Photos)应用。然后，浏览以找到要传输的照片并选择它们。您可以通过点击并按住照片进入选择模式，然后点击要传输的所有其他照片来做到这一点。
选择所有内容后，点击屏幕顶部的共享(Share)按钮。
在屏幕底部，Google 相册(Google Photos)会向您显示人员列表。如果您找到要将照片传输给的人，请点击他或她。
如果您在列表中找不到他或她，请点击看起来像镜子的搜索按钮。
输入(Enter)此人的姓名、电话或电子邮件。找到他/她后，点击他/她的名字，然后点击屏幕右上角的下一步。(Next)
如果您愿意，可以添加一条消息，或者如果您不想，则将“说些什么”("Say something")字段留空。然后，点击发送(Send)按钮。
稍等(Wait)片刻，照片将传输到收件人的Android手机。传输结束后，您可以关闭iPhone 上的Google 相册应用。(Google Photos)在Android智能手机上，其所有者现在可以看到您传输的照片。但是，要将它们实际存储在他或她的Android设备上，他或她现在必须从Google 相册(Google Photos)应用程序下载它们。
要从Android智能手机上的Google 相册(Google Photos)应用下载照片，请点击屏幕右上角的更多按钮（看起来像三个点）。(More)或者，您也可以从该照片的底部滑动手指。
前面的操作显示了一系列选项。其中，您将找到一个名为Download的按钮。点击它，Google 相册(Google Photos)会将该照片保存在本地，即Android智能手机的存储空间中。
重要提示：(IMPORTANT:)虽然这是将照片从 iPhone 传输到Android的简便方法，但它仅适用于单张照片。换句话说，谷歌(Google)不允许你选择多张照片并从其谷歌照片(Google Photos)应用程序中一次下载所有照片。这对很多人来说是一个无赖，所以如果你是他们中的一员，下一个方法可能会更好：
3. 如何使用OneDrive或Dropbox等云存储应用程序将照片从 iPhone 传输到Android
将照片从 iPhone 传输到Android(Android)的另一种简单方法是使用云存储应用程序，例如OneDrive或Dropbox。不幸的是，Apple 的iCloud服务没有适用于Android设备的应用程序，所以这是不可能的。另一方面，OneDrive和Dropbox都感觉像是更好的服务、更好的应用程序和更好的付费计划。选择一个您最喜欢的或者您已经订阅和使用的，然后按照与本文前面方法中的步骤类似的几个步骤进行操作。为了举例说明这些步骤，我们使用OneDrive：
首先，在 iPhone 上下载并安装OneDrive应用程序。您可以从适用于 iPhone的App Store和适用于Android设备的Play Store获得它。(Play Store)接下来(Next)，使用您的Microsoft 帐户(Microsoft account)在 iPhone 上登录OneDrive 。完成后，在 iPhone 上上传要传输的照片。如果您不知道如何操作，请按照本教程中的步骤操作：如何将照片从 iPhone 或 iPad 上传到 OneDrive(How to upload photos to OneDrive from your iPhone or iPad)。
最后，选择您要从 iPhone 传输的照片并与拥有Android设备的人分享。如果您不知道如何操作，可以在本教程的第三部分中找到详细的具体步骤：从 OneDrive 共享文件和文件夹的 4 种方法(4 ways to share files and folders from OneDrive)。
传输照片后，您向其发送共享邀请的人可以使用他或她获得的链接将所有照片下载到他或她的 Android 设备上。
4. 如何使用 PC将照片从 iPhone 传输到Android设备(Android)
最后，将照片从 iPhone 传输到Android的最后一种简单方法是使用 PC 和USB电缆。为了举例说明该过程，我们使用的是Windows 10 计算机、iPhone 和Android智能手机。您需要做的是使用它们的USB电缆将移动设备连接到计算机，并确保您允许Windows访问智能手机上的数据存储。如果这样做，iPhone 和Android设备的存储都应该可以从File Explorer获得。
浏览(Browse)iPhone 的内存，选择要传输的照片，然后复制它们(copy them)。
然后转到Android设备的存储空间，找到或创建要传输这些照片的文件夹，然后粘贴它们。
如果无法直接复制和粘贴，请尝试将照片复制到 Windows 10 桌面或计算机上的其他文件夹，然后将它们从那里移动到(copy and paste)Android设备。将照片从 iPhone 传输到Android智能手机后，您可以断开这两个设备与计算机的连接。
将照片从 iPhone 传输到Android的首选方式是什么？
现在您知道了将照片从 iPhone 发送到Android设备的四种不同方式。你最喜欢哪一个(Which one)，为什么？还有一个你更喜欢的吗？我们承认，我们本来希望有一个内置选项，可以使用蓝牙将照片从 iPhone 传输到(Bluetooth)Android。不幸的是，苹果(Apple)的生态系统是一个相当有围墙的地方，所以我们不能这样做。如果您有什么要补充或说的，请随时使用下面的评论部分与我们联系。
How to transfer photos from iPhone to Android (4 ways)
Sending photos from an iPhone to an Android smartphone or tablet was not an eаѕy task a few years ago. Fortunately, things have changed fоr the better, although no thanks to Apple, but rather because Google, Microsoft, and other companies offer υs easy ways to transfer photos from iРhones to Android devices. Here are the most straightfоrward methods we know:
1. How to transfer photos from iPhone to Android using a file transfer app such as Send Anywhere
Let's begin with what we believe to be the easiest way to transfer photos from iPhone to Android. All you need is an app developed for this exact purpose. There are many available, but the one we like most is Send Anywhere. You can get it for free on your iPhone from the App Store or from the Play Store on Android devices.
Once you've downloaded and installed it, open it on both devices: iPhone and Android. On your iPhone, go to the Photos tab from Send Anywhere and select the photos you want to transfer. Tap and drag to select multiple photos, or open any photo you want and choose Select from the top-right corner of the screen.
You can also select all the photos from your iPhone at once, or select all the photos shot in a specific day, using the appropriate buttons from the app's interface.
Once you've chosen the photos to transfer from your iPhone to the Android device, tap the red Send button from the dialog shown on the bottom of the screen.
The Send Anywhere app now shows you a 6-digit keycode, a QR code, and a Share Link button. You can use any of them to transfer the photos, but the easiest is the last option: at the bottom of the screen, you should see all the nearby devices running Send Anywhere. That's where your Android device should be listed. All you have to do is tap on its name.
On your iPhone, you're going to be asked whether you're sure you want to transfer the files to the Android device. Choose OK.
Almost instantly, the Android device should display a notification that the iPhone wants to transfer photos. Accept and wait for everything that's sent from the iPhone to be received on the Android. That's it!
NOTE: You can experiment with the app if you prefer the other ways of transferring photos. Regardless of whether you choose to use the 6-digit temporary password, a QR code, or the Share Link option, you should know that the transfers are all as safe as possible (all the transferred files are encrypted). For more details on how to work with the Send Anywhere app, you can also check its support page.
2. How to transfer photos from iPhone to Android using a photo app such as Google Photos
Another way to transfer photos from iPhone to Android is through Google's Photos app, which you can get from the App Store on your iPhone. The person to whom you want to send the photos also has to install the Google Photos app from the Play Store, on his or her Android device (if he/she doesn't already have it).
On your iPhone, sign in to the Google Photos app using your Google account (your Gmail address). Then, browse to find the photos you want to transfer and select them. You can do that by tapping and holding on a photo to enter the selection mode, and then tap on all the other photos that you want to transfer.
Once you've selected everything, tap on the Share button from the top of the screen.
On the bottom of the screen, Google Photos shows you a list of people. If you find the one to whom you want to transfer the photos, tap on him or her.
If you don't find him or her in the list, tap the search button that looks like a looking glass.
Enter the name, phone, or email of the person. Once you've found him/her, tap on his/her name, then tap Next on the top-right corner of the screen.
Add a message if you want, or leave the "Say something" field empty if you don't. Then, tap the Send button.
Wait for a couple of moments for the photos to transfer to the recipient's Android phone. Once the transfer is over, you can close the Google Photos app on your iPhone. On the Android smartphone, its owner can now see the photos you've transferred. However, to actually have them stored locally on his or her Android device, he or she must now download them from the Google Photos app.
To download a photo from the Google Photos app on an Android smartphone, tap on the More button (which looks like three dots) from the top-right corner of the screen. Alternatively, you can also slide your finger from the bottom of that photo.
The previous action shows a series of options. Among them, you're going to find a button called Download. Tap on it, and Google Photos saves that photo locally, on the Android smartphone's storage space.
IMPORTANT: Although this is an easy way to transfer photos from iPhone to Android, it only works for individual photos. In other words, Google doesn't let you select multiple photos and download all of them at once from its Google Photos app. That's a bummer for many people, so the next method might be better if you're one of them:
3. How to transfer photos from iPhone to Android using a cloud storage app such as OneDrive or Dropbox
Yet another easy way to transfer photos from iPhone to Android is to use a cloud storage app such as OneDrive or Dropbox. Unfortunately, Apple's iCloud service doesn't have an app for Android devices, so it's out of the question. On the other hand, both OneDrive and Dropbox feel like better services with better apps and even better paid plans. Choose one that you like best or which you already are subscribed to and use, and then follow a couple of steps similar to the ones from the previous method in this article. To exemplify these steps, we're using OneDrive:
First, download and install the OneDrive app on your iPhone. You can get it from the App Store for the iPhone, and from the Play Store for the Android device. Next, use your Microsoft account to sign in to OneDrive on your iPhone. Once you've done that, on your iPhone, upload the photos that you want to transfer. If you don't know how to do that, follow the steps from this tutorial: How to upload photos to OneDrive from your iPhone or iPad.
Finally, select the photos you want to transfer from your iPhone and share them with the person who owns the Android device. If you don't know how to do that, you can find the exact steps detailed in the third section of this tutorial: 4 ways to share files and folders from OneDrive.
After you transfer the photos, the person to whom you send the sharing invitation can use the link he or she got to download all of them on his or her Android device.
4. How to transfer photos from an iPhone to an Android device using a PC
Finally, the last easy method to transfer photos from an iPhone to Android is by using a PC and USB cables. To exemplify the process, we're using a Windows 10 computer, an iPhone, and an Android smartphone. What you need to do is connect the mobile devices to the computer, using their USB cables, and make sure that you let Windows access the data storage on your smartphones. If you do that, both the storage of the iPhone and that of the Android device should be available from File Explorer.
Browse through your iPhone's memory, select the photos you want to transfer, and copy them.
Then go to the storage space of the Android device, find or create the folder where you want to transfer those photos, and paste them.
If the copy and paste doesn't work directly, try copying the photos to your Windows 10 desktop or another folder on your computer and then move them from there to the Android device. When the photos have been transferred from the iPhone to the Android smartphone, you can disconnect both devices from your computer.
What's your preferred way of transferring photos from your iPhone to Android?
Now you know four different ways of sending photos from an iPhone to an Android device. Which one is your favorite, and why? Is there another one that you like even more? We admit that we would have liked to have a built-in option to transfer photos from iPhone to Android using Bluetooth. Unfortunately, Apple's ecosystem is a rather walled place, so we can't do that. If you have anything to add or say, don't hesitate to get in touch using the comments section below.
