About Photo Drawer: External Backup
Photo Drawer backs up your iPhone photos to an external hard drive, SSD or USB stick and organizes them with on-device AI. No monthly subscription — keep everything on your own drive, for life. FEATURES - Unlimited queue backup — tens of thousands of photos in one go, no 500-photo selection limit, resumes where it stopped - Since-last-backup auto-detect — just the new photos, no dates to remember - Today / date range / all / hand-picked backups - SHA-256 verification — every copy is checked against the original - Browse your drive like an album and restore originals - Automatic trip detection (location + time) - Duplicate finder to reclaim space - Storage breakdown of photos, videos and screenshots 100% ON-DEVICE — your photos never leave your device. No network transfer, no ads, no trackers. PRICING Back up to 1,000 photos for free. Restoring, browsing your drive and SHA-256 verification stay free. Pro is a one-time, lifetime purchase that removes the photo limit and unlocks AI organizing (sorting, search, trips, duplicates, timeline). Not a subscription. Tip: use a drive formatted as exFAT or APFS (NTFS is read-only on iPhone and iPad).
