PicFerry: ZIP to Photos

Get photos and videos out of ZIP files and into your iPhone's Photos library. PicFerry imports from ZIP archives or folders, shows clear progress, and saves original files to a named album without re-encoding them.

See which files were saved, skipped or couldn't be imported. Pause a batch and continue later, retry failed files, and skip duplicates already recorded by PicFerry. Files are processed on your device, one at a time.

IMPORT YOUR COLLECTIONS Choose a standard ZIP, a ZIP64 archive or a folder in Files. Name the destination album before importing, then follow the progress for the batch and the current file.

CONTINUE WITH CONFIDENCE Completed imports are recorded. If you pause or leave the app, return to continue the batch. If storage is low, PicFerry pauses so you can free space. Previously saved files are retained, and failed files can be retried separately.

KEEP THE ORIGINAL FILES PicFerry imports the original photo and video files without re-encoding. Readable capture dates are used when available. Your source ZIP or folder is retained.

PROCESS ON YOUR DEVICE No PicFerry account is required. PicFerry itself does not upload your media. Your device's iCloud Photos settings still apply, and cloud-based source files may need to download first.

BEFORE YOU IMPORT Keep PicFerry open while importing and leave enough storage for the Photos copies and the current temporary file. If an unfinished file is interrupted, that file starts again when you resume; completed files are not imported again.

Encrypted and multipart archives, RAR and 7z are not supported. Photo and video compatibility depends on iOS Photos. Live Photo pairs are not automatically assembled. Duplicate detection covers files imported through PicFerry and does not scan your entire photo library.
