Transfer Photos from iPhone to iPhone with Different Apple ID: 2 MultCloud Solutions

If you use iCloud to save your iPhone photos, you may try MultCloud for photo transfer. MultCloud is used to manage multiple cloud drives and email clients on one website. It offers various cloud-to-cloud file transfer, sync, or backup functions, and Cloud Transfer is the one that we can make use of.

Using Cloud Transfer to transfer photos from one iCloud account to another, you can schedule the task and let it run at your convenient time. Besides, if you want to delete the photos in the source account after transferring, MultCloud can help you do that automatically. What's more, MultCloud uses bandwidth to transfer files which is stable and fast. 

Way 1: Transfer Photos from One Apple ID to Another by Cloud Transfer

At the very beginning, don't forget to turn on iCloud Photos on both of your iPhones.

Step 1: Enter MultCloud and click “Get started for Free” to get a new MultCloud account.

Step 2: Add iCloud Photos to MultCloud by clicking “Add Cloud” and then choosing the iCloud Photos icon. Then you will go through two-factor authentication to log in to iCloud Photos.

Step 3: Open "Cloud Transfer" in the left sidebar and put the different iCloud Photos accounts into their corresponding boxes. Then, tap on the “Transfer Now” icon and the transfer process will be complete very soon.

Way 2: Transfer Photos from a Different Apple ID by "Copy to"

After you add the 2 iCloud Photos accounts to MultCloud, you can also use "Copy to" to transfer photos. The steps are also easy to follow.

Step 1: Open the iCloud Photos account you want to transfer your photos from.

Step 2: Select the photos you want to transfer and click "Copy to" in the upper bar (or right-click the photos and choose "Copy to" in the dropdown menu). Then choose your another iCloud Photos account as the photo recipient and click "OK" to start transferring.

This section will give the instructions to use Shared Albums and AirDrop to transfer Photos with Different Apple IDs. However, these 2 solutions have some limitations. For example, if you want to transfer by AirDrop, you should consider the physical distance and Bluetooth connection. 

Way 1: Move iPhone Photos by Shared Albums

Before you begin to use Shared Albums, you have to make sure that you turn on Shared Albums in Settings. The steps for how to make a Shared Album on iCloud and use it to transfer photos are shown below.

Step 1: Open the Photos app and turn to the Albums interface. Then tap the “+” button in the upper-left corner.

Step 2: Add a new Shared Album, give it a name, and click “Next”.

Step 3: Invite another Apple ID to join this Shared Album from your contacts or entering an email address/iMessage phone number. Then click “Create” and a new Shared Album is created.

Step 4: Tap the icon in the upper-right corner and turn on the button of “Subscribers Can Post”. By doing so, you can transfer photos from your iPhone to their iPhones.

Way 2: Transfer Photos between iPhones by AirDrop

If you don't have iCloud and you also want to transfer photos from one iPhone to another, using AirDrop is a good choice. But it requires you to stay close to the recipient and turn on Bluetooth on both of your iPhones.

Step 1: Open the Photos app on your iPhone and select the photos that you want to transfer.

Step 2: Click the “Share” icon and choose AirDrop.

Step 3: Select another Apple ID that you want to transfer photos to and tap “Done” in the upper-right corner. Your photos will be transferred from one Apple ID to another.

Conclusion

Also, MultCloud doesn’t have a restriction on physical distance.

Except for Cloud Transfer, MultCloud has more functions like Team Transfer, Cloud Sync, and Cloud Backup. Things like backing up iCloud Photos to Google Photos automatically can be simply realized on MultCloud. Therefore, you may give it a chance.
