How to Transfer Photos and Pictures from Android to PC or Mac

If you use your Android phone as a replacement of digital camera, it can be helpful to transfer photos from Android to computer on a regular interval. Luckily, the process of moving photos from your Android phone to PC/Mac is fairly simple. In this blog, I'd like to guide you through the photo transfer.

Follow the steps below to copy photos from Android phone to a computer:

1. Connect your Android phone using the USB digital cable. An USB icon will appear in the notification area of your phone.
2. On the Android smartphone, drag the notifications bar down and then tap it. Next tap USB connected, and then Mount.
3. On the computer, the micro-SD card in your Android phone will be recognized and listed as a removable disk.
4. Open this removable disk, and go to DCIM > Camera. Here you can copy all photos of your Android phone to any folder on your computer.
