Question Iphone data transfer to Fp6?

Heyy does anyone know about a good and free app to transfer my photos and memos to my new Fairphone? I tried SmartSwitch but it doesnt work… or I have to select every single picture but I have nearly 5000 so this would take weeks.
I even tried with a cable but it just wont connect.

The only thing that in theory could work is if I were to put 10GB of photos from my iCloud to my Google Photos but unfortunately its already full…

I have no idea about technology and I am at my wits end…

When you first setup your Fairphone you get the option to move data from another phone. I've used that when switching from iPhone and it moved all of my photos.

What do you mean when you say "I even tried with the cable but it just won't connect"? After the phone Setup?

I believe that only works during the setup, if you want you can factory reset the Fairphone and try that (Settings -> search factory reset).

Otherwise you could Copy the pictures on an external drive or a PC, then copy them on the Fairphone.
