I would like the ability to filter photos by their original source before transferring or converting them.
In particular, I want to be able to select only photos and videos that were actually taken with my own iPhone (using its camera), while excluding images that came from other sources — for example, photos received through WhatsApp, Messages, email, AirDrop, downloads, screenshots, or images saved from other apps.
Ideally, CopyTrans Studio could identify the source using the available photo metadata and offer filters such as:
This would make it much easier to back up or convert my personal camera photos without having to manually sort through thousands of other images stored on the iPhone.
I keep all my back up folders of years of family pictures on my PC and want to transfer them back to my iPhone, once organised, to view and share. It is not possible to copy folders from the PC to the "Sync from Computer" folders. iTunes used to do it (slow) and the Apple Transfer app takes forever and keeps crashing. Can you add this feature so I can drag and drop them over?
With the free version, you can convert across folders, and with the paid version, the conversion is stopped before the 'folder change'. I bought the 2-year subscription, uninstalled the paid version, and converted my 12,000 HEIC images in blocks of 100 with the free version. Thanks for that.
I wasn't sure of the HEIC-to-.jpg file conversions worked (no visual depiction), so I tried a couple more times and ended up with filename(1), (2), (3) and even (4) sometimes showing multiple conversions. There's no apparent way to mass remove the duplicates, triplicates, etc, so it was a painful lesson.
I am converting HEIC to PNG. I noticed the picture taken date does not transfer with conversion. This is very important when backing up and creating folders of pictures. I also did not care for the payment methods and wish there was a direct CC payment method without using paypal. The automatic renewal in one year is annoying.
For the file rename feature of backups, could you make it possible to name files according to this format? It would be extremely helpful.
YYYYMMDD_HHMMSS_FileName
That way I can see the date and time the image was taken, as well as the original file name.
Bonus if we could choose to have it in local time or UTC time.
It would be very helpful if I could download raw photos stored on my iPad from my Fuji camera, which I manually transferred to my iPad using an SD card. Unfortunately, Apple has not provided a way to access, move, or delete these photos in the current iOS version. This is a known issue, and the only workaround is to edit and move the photos using Lightroom on the iPad. A solution using your software would therefore be very helpful.
You can already find the folder "Screenshots" under "Media types".
For other ideas - thanks!
