How to download all the pictures in your Amazon Photos library
Tanya from Ventura, California uses Amazon Photos to back up all the pictures she takes on her phone. Amazon Photos lets you get 5 GB of storage for full-resolution photos and videos. You can get unlimited photo storage with Prime.
There’s just one problem: It’s hard to get all of your pictures off of Amazon en masse. She wants to move away from Amazon, but she feels like her pictures are being held hostage.
When I looked it up, I found that Tanya was correct. If you are using a web browser, you cannot currently select an entire album to download from Amazon Photos. At least, you can’t do it easily.
Luckily, I have a tech genius who works at the Komando HQ. I asked TeamKomando:John to help out and he shared the steps to success:
- Make sure you have Amazon photos installed, you can tap or click here to download the software to your Mac or PC.
- Hit the Start button > Amazon Photos > Backup.
- Under Your Photo Stats, you’ll see an image icon that tells you how many photos you backed up. Click it.
- Select Download > Download Folder > All > Download too…
- In the new pop-up, select your download destination by selecting Select Folder. This starts downloading your library—no matter how large it is.
Since Tanya’s photo collection is so huge, it may take a while for her 10,000 pictures to download on to her computer. However, this is a surefire way to transfer your pictures off of Amazon Photos.
