#194117 — How to copy a photo from Windows to iOS without needing Internet servers

FromMarion <marion@facts.com>

SubjectHow to copy a photo from Windows to iOS without needing Internet servers
Message-ID<vst3gs$bkp$1@nnrp.usenet.blueworldhosting.com>
Apple products don't work in the real world so something as trivial as 
copying a photo from Windows to iOS is almost impossible without the net.

In a Windows/Android thread, we've been discussing how to use screenshots 
to get past Android security, when Steve Sharf noted that iOS lacks 
Android's security so we can successfully screenshot iOS on Windows PCs.
 <https://www.novabbs.com/computers/article-flat.php?id=58173&group=comp.mobile.android#58173>
  "Ironically, iOS doesn't have the capability for apps to restrict
   screenshots. I've used an iPhone, on at least two occasions, to do a
   screenshot of a virtual ID card that I wanted to add to my Google
   Wallet. Transferred the image from the iPhone to my Android phone."

So the plan is to install these apps on iOS & Android to do cartooning.

iOS "Voila"

Android "Photo Lab"
 <https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=vsin.t16_funny_photo>

The main problem now is how to perform the trivial task of copying 
a photo from the Windows PC to the iOS device without using Apple's
iTunes abomination bloatware (& insecureware), or Internet servers.

Has anyone on this newsgroup ever copied a photo from Windows to iOS
without having to create an account on someone's server on the net?

You theoretically can with ifuse if you set up WSL.

First off, thank you very much for understanding the problem-set issues.
Apple has made something trivial, like copying photos, almost impossible.

What's refreshing is you seem to understand that something that simple,
isn't simple, simply because the Apple ecosystem is like a deep cave.

You can easily travel inside the cave, but you can't easily interact with
the real world outside of that deep subterranean cave that Apple built.

Hence, I thank you for that iFuse within the Windows Subsystem for Linux,
suggestion, where I wrote a tutorial long ago how to set up WSL on Windows.

But currently, on this Windows 10 desktop, WSL is not set up.

Even so, I'm well aware that iFuse on Linux works great, and, in fact, I've
published tutorials for how to turn any iOS device into a dumb USB stick.

Here are screenshots I made for one tutorial, which proves iFuse works.

Here are screenshots from an even older tutorial using iFuse with iOS

The problem, of course, with iFuse, is then I have to set up either WSL on
the PC, or even harder, I have to set up a dual-boot GRUB menu on my PC.

I am hoping to find some kind of software that allows easier transfer.

But, I'm pretty sure a simpler way exists, as I can't be the first person
in the world who wants to copy a photo from Windows to the iOS device
without needing the Internet (or insecure iTunes bloatware on the PC).

In summary, your idea of using iFuse inside of WSL on the PC would work.
But I'm hoping to find a simpler solution using a local Wi-Fi server app.

Has anyone ever copied a photo from Windows to the iOS device w/o the net?
(and w/o the itunes abomination, or net servers, or having to use Linux)

Ah, sorry. I have no idea then. I use Linux myself.

Well then, the universal solution we came up with is good news for you!
Our solution works for *every* operating system. Including Linux.

 *Tutorial: How to send files between Windows & iOS over the LAN using LocalSend*
 <https://www.novabbs.com/computers/article-flat.php?id=86116&group=alt.comp.os.windows-10#86116>

I only tested PC to/from iOS so it'd be great if you test Linux/iOS.

Here's the Linux LocalSend installation instructions:
 <https://localsend.org/download?os=linux>

And here's the LocalSend iOS IPA:
 <https://apps.apple.com/us/app/localsend/id1661733229>

All you do is run LocalSend on both platforms and you can then send and
receive files and folders bidirectionally between all the platforms.

If you do test Linux/iOS file transfer, let us know how well it goes.
As the whole point of Usenet is to learn from each others' efforts.

Then use the far simpler method of connecting to your Windows machine via
the Files app. Make sure you have Sharing enabled in Windows first. Simple
and new apps required.

You clearly do not understand.   THAT IS IMPOSSIBLE!

Why?  Because the one person here who has never even TRIED to do it (Marion
The Apple Troll), says THAT IS IMPOSSIBLE! It is quote "Imaginary
Functionality". 

Nevermind that several people have explained how to do it. Marion claims that
"Many people say it does not work". Which really means that "Many people are
doing something wrong".  Probably not enabling sharing on Windows first.

I fail to understand why you guys are so against someone using a different
method to transfer files between a PC and iPhone. 

Yes, the iOS native method is good enough for some people, but others want
to do it a different way. The more choices, the better. 

Local Send and Phone Link both work by allowing files to be sent or
retrieved from the PC to the iPhone. The iOS Files app only allows files to
be sent or retrieved from the phone. 

There is no disputing any of this. Why keep fighting about it?

No one is "against" anything. 

The problem is that Arlen is STILL claiming that it can't be done without
installing something on both sides.  NOTHING needs to be installed. It CAN be
done, but he is too much of a child to admit he is wrong.

Arlen accepted when I told him I could transfer using the Files app.
He has also admitted to being wrong numerous times and apologized for
it.

LOL... You so desperately want us all to ignore the fact that Arlen has
been calling everyone who told him he was wrong "liars", claimed that
this is "imaginary technology" for iOS devices, and claims Apple devices
are "dumb terminals".

> He has also admitted to being wrong numerous times and apologized for

Yes, and you are so eager to accept his empty apologies, aren't you?

Nowhere.   Ever. 

BTW, Marion has accused all of us of creating "Imaginary Functionality". 

I don't give a damn what anyone else uses. But SMB - the standard way that
Windows, Unix and Linux network to each other - works fine on iOS. Because iOS
is Unix.

And this functionality has existed for 6 years on iOS: 

https://www.reddit.com/r/ios/comments/d82piq/pro_tip_sharing_between_pc_and_ios_using_smb_and/?rdt=53352

Here is another, with screen shots:

https://osxdaily.com/2021/02/24/how-access-windows-shared-folder-iphone-ipad/

And another:

https://www.anyviewer.com/how-to/access-windows-server-from-ipad-2578.html

Seems like LOTS of people are using "Imaginary Functionality".

Give it up, Marion.  This is real and works just fine.  That you don't know
about it does not mean it does not exist.

It's clear you've never read any of your outdated, ancient shill links.

You are well aware I own plenty of Windows, Android & iOS devices, so I
know that Apple locks its owners into their deep subterranean ecosystem.

You Apple trolls, in general, have never used Android so you have no idea
how trivial it is with adult operating systems to copy files onto them.

I'm well aware this copy (which is trivial on every adult platform), is
made miserable as Apple designed the toy iOS operating system that way.

Unfortunately, the only way to tunnel out of the dark dank subterranean
tunnels that are the Apple ecosystem, is by some kind of clusterfuck.

Most of the time, people resort to 3rd-party clusterfucks, such as iMazing,
DearMob iPhone Manager, Send Anywhere, AnyTrans, FE File Explorer, etc.,
each of which has its own issues, mot the least of which is cost.

Even you just now listed a 3rd-party clusterfuck that requires the Internet
in order to copy a file from the PC on the desk to the iOS device on it.
 <https://www.anyviewer.com/ss/download/AnyViewerSetup.exe>
Although they do have a local version but it requires login/password
because it's actually using the Internet, much like iOS does every day.

The fact you listed that clusterfuck as a *solution* shows not only that
you don't understand the problem set, but you don't read your own links.

You never do. For years, all you do to "support" your lies is find a link
with the keywords - but you *never* read those links because your own link
proves that you're trying to supply us with clusterfucks worse than SMB!

As further proof you don't even read your own links, nospam, is your
suggestion of Windows Remote Desktop is absurd, given iOS devices do not
have a built-in Remote Desktop server that a standard Windows Remote
Desktop client can connect to. 

For iOS, you would need to install a Remote Desktop client app (e.g.,
Microsoft Remote Desktop, TeamViewer, AnyDesk) which is a clusterfuck.

To use your SMB server model, you'll have to install something like "LAN
drive SAMBA Server/Client" which is yet another clusterfuck you proposed.
https://apps.apple.com/us/app/lan-drive-samba-server-client/id1317727404

Of course, there's always the iTunes bloatware abomination clusterfuck.
But nobody other than an Apple troll would contemplate that disaster.

There is also Documents by Readdle (not really free) clusterfucks, and the
Send Anywhere clusterfuck (which has a free tier). 

Then there's that ancient outdated Reddit thread you referenced because you
can't find anything within iOS 17 or iOS 18 that works. Classic nospam.

There is Vysor, which will allow you, from Windows, to operate the iOS
device, but it costs money for the drag-and-drop of files to iOS' filesys.

In summary, what "just works" on all other operating systems, is a
clusterfuck on iOS - no matter which clusterfuck you choose to employ.
-- 
The reason it's a clusterfuck is that Apple designed their subterranean
ecosystem to only work when you're inside their caverns; not outside them.

LOL.. in steps badgolferman to pretend Arlen's claims that iOS can't do
what the rest of us do with ease, calling it "imaginary technology",
claiming Apple devices are supposedly just "dumb terminals", and calling
those of us who proved him wrong yet again "liars" didn't actually
happen and this is really just someone using a different method... So
fucking predictable. Just admit it: you like the taste of Arlen's ass.

> Yes, the iOS native method is good enough for some people

Is it good enough for you and little Arlen, who repeatedly claim iOS is
a dumb terminal for lemmings who can't think for themselves, and this is
"imaginary technology" and definitely not bi-directional? Arlen started
this whole thread as a troll and your cheerleading and pretending that's
not what this is won't change it. 

> There is no disputing any of this. Why keep fighting about it?

Says Arlen's cheerleader...

Thanks, but I use Linux, and I already stated I'm fine with just using
ifuse and a usb cable. Or KDE Connect.
