I would like the ability to filter photos by their original source before transferring or converting them.

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:

  • Taken with this iPhone / Camera photos only
  • Screenshots
  • Received or imported photos
  • Downloaded/saved images
  • Specific camera/device model

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.

You can already find the folder "Screenshots" under "Media types".

For other ideas - thanks!


Also please discover Smart Albums, maybe this function could help you: https://copytrans.studio/support/how-to-use-smart-albums/
