Some googling would find you several ways to do this (directly on the phone to external storage is possible, but yeah selecting all the photos on the iphone sucks as you have to click one and scroll-select them all):

The easiest way is to export them via photos for mac.
If you don't have a mac, then there's ways to get the photos on a PC:

You can also setup icloud on windows and download them, then move them wherever.

You can also connect the phone direct to PC and download them.
So it's not nearly impossible if you don't have a macbook.

- yolo3000 3y agoIf you have a Mac the easiest is to use the Image Capture app, which comes preinstalled. A lot better than the Photos app, in my experience.
- ramones13 3y agoWhich hits the problem pretty well, right? To do something efficiently on an iPhone, buy a Mac.
- yolo3000 3y agoI was trying to be helpful. I was responding to someone else who said they have a Mac. But, if you want to relate it to the title, I don't believe there's any technical limitation to developing an app for Windows that can help you transfer files from an Iphone. And as far as I remember, the Android transfer app on Windows (or maybe Mac) is pretty bad as well. Maybe the issue is that there's no money to be made from this, so nobody develops nicer apps. In general I do agree that Iphones are easier integrated with Macs, I personally don't have a problem with that
