How to Wirelessly Transfer Cell Phone Photos
How to Wirelessly Transfer Cell Phone Pictures to your computer? Is it a mystery or do you have this process down pat?
There are many ways to Wirelessly Transfer Photos From Your Phone to a PC. But my favorite way to do this is, by using the Mobile Sync app that is available with acdsee software. This is the software program I use to organize my photos and digital scrapbooking supplies too.
What you need to have or do:
- Mobile Sync is an app that acdsee introduced with acdsee Photo Studio Standard 2018. When you download ACDSee 2018 and newer versions, a Mobile Sync Folder is automatically created and added to your computer structure.
- Download the Mobile Sync app from the Play Store to your cell phone.
- Once you open the Mobile Sync app, you will be asked to select your Target destination. Choose the ACDSee Software version that you have.
Settings:
To access Settings, click on the Cog in the lower-left corner of your phone screen. There are several settings that you can choose to utilize, but the most important are:
-
- Select how you would like your Filenames to appear:
- Year/Month/Date/Hour/Minute/Seconds
- Year/Month/Day Original (This is what I use).
- Year/Month/Date/Hour/Minute/Seconds/Original
- Select how you would like to handle your files.
- The options I use are:
- File names: Year/Month/Date/Original
- Subfolders: Date Taken (Year/Month/Date)
- File Collision Handling: Automatic
- The options I use are:
- Select how you would like your Filenames to appear:
Transferring Images:
- Open the ACDSee app on your phone.
- Touch the 3 dots in the lower right corner of the phone screen to choose which files you want to upload.
- Click on the Up arrow in the upper right corner to upload the selected images to your computer.
- The uploaded images will appear in your ACDSee Mobile Sync folder, within the folder structure you have chosen.
And that’s it! That’s how easy it is! I absolutely love this feature. No cables to hook up or no complicated 3rd-party applications to install and learn.
