Microsoft's Garage team says in a profiling post that the Photos Companion app has been built with students and educators in mind as it would offer a simple way in a classroom to share media irrespective of network speeds or mobile data charges.
Also, if in case the Import from mobile over Wi-Fi option is not visible in the Photos app on your Windows computer, you need to enable the Show additional preview features option that is available in the Settings section of the Photos app. As we mentioned, your devices need to be on the same Wi-Fi network to let you successfully transfer content. After that, you need to point the scanner available on the Photos Companion app at the QR code to begin the transfer. To bring the QR code on your Windows 10 PC's screen, you need to open the Photos app and then select Import > From mobile over Wi-Fi. Moreover, a QR code is provided in the Windows Photos app that helps you start transferring the content wirelessly. Your devices need to be on the same Wi-Fi network to enable the transfer process. You can download the Photos Companion app on your iOS device by visiting the App Store, or on your Android device by going to Google Play.ĭeveloped as a Microsoft Garage project, the Photos Companion app uses Wi-Fi connectivity on your phone and PC to establish a connection to transfer photos and videos from one device to another.
It essentially works as a bridge between a Windows 10 PC and mobile devices. The new app, which has been in testing for some months, is aimed to make it easy for Windows 10 users to transfer their photos and videos from mobile devices to the Microsoft Photos app available on their Windows 10 desktop, notebooks, and tablets. Microsoft has ultimately released the anticipated Photos Companion app for iOS and Android devices.
