Back up photos to USB-C drives
$1.99
Back up before you delete. Copy photos and videos to your chosen folder, review a verified receipt, and keep control of your originals.
Back up before you delete.
PulseDrive copies photos and videos from your iPhone or iPad to a folder you choose through Files. Use a compatible external drive or another writable Files destination, organize your media, and keep a receipt of what was copied and checked.
BACK UP YOUR WAY
Start with the full library, recent items, large videos, favorites, screenshots, a Photos album, a date range, or your own selection. Back Up What’s New skips unchanged items already verified on the selected destination.
CHECK THE COPY
Choose Basic, Size Match, or Checksum verification. Each session records verified items, bytes written, and anything that needs attention. A portable manifest travels with the backup so you can import history when reconnecting the destination.
PAUSE, RESUME, AND RESTORE
Pause a transfer and continue unfinished work later. Follow supported backup progress with a Live Activity. Browse verified backup files and restore selected photos or videos to Photos when needed.
REVIEW BEFORE REMOVING
Safe Delete Review checks backup proof and keeps favorites and recent items protected by default. You choose what to remove, and Photos asks for confirmation. Nothing is deleted automatically. Space becomes available according to Photos’ Recently Deleted rules.
FITS YOUR SCREEN
Use Basic or Advanced mode, light or dark appearance, and layouts that adapt to iPhone, Duo, and iPad windows.
No account, subscription, advertising, or developer cloud service is required. Your media goes to the destination you select; choosing iCloud Drive or another cloud-backed provider may let that provider sync it. Originals stored only in iCloud Photos may need to download before copying. Keep the destination connected and return to the app to resume work if the system pauses background activity.
