How to Transfer Photos from iPhone to iPhone for Free Using Cloud Services

Cloud services like iCloud, Google Photos, and Dropbox are a great way to transfer photos from iPhone to iPhone, making it easy to transfer photos between iPhones wirelessly for free. Here's a step-by-step guide to transfer photos from iPhone to iPhone with iCloud.

Step 1. Select Your Photos

To use this method, you first need to select the photos that you wish to transfer to the other iPhone. 

Step 2. Upload Photos to the Cloud 

Once you have selected the photos, you need to upload them to the cloud. Now, depending on the Cloud service you're using, there are two ways you can do this. You can either back up your photos to the cloud, or you can upload them individually to the cloud. 

Step 3. Log in to the Cloud on the Other iPhone

After uploading your photos to the cloud service you use, you'll need to log in to the cloud on the other iPhone. If you're transferring these photos to someone else's iPhone, you can just share the link to the uploaded photos instead of logging in to the cloud on their iPhone.
