iPhone Shortcut to save all images in burst as individual photos

I have a large number of burst photos and would like to select which ones to keep on a bigger screen than my phone. If I upload or AirDrop them onto a Mac, only one image in the burst is transferred. there appears to no be way to select/upload all images in a burst without scrolling through the whole list and clicking on each one individually. Not an option with several hundred photos.

I found this Shortcut which converts all images in a burst to a GIF. I tried and so far failed to modify to instead save each burst image as an individual photo. Any help with that would be great!

Hello yaasirkoraii,

Thanks for posting in Apple Support Communities.

We’ll be happy to help all we can today with photos. Instead of using AirDrop to move those burst photos to your Mac, we recommend using the steps in this article: Transfer photos and videos from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch -- You can select the burst photos instead of transferring the entire photo library on your iPhone.

Have you seen and followed the steps in View photo bursts and select shots to work with in Photos on Mac? See step 5, you should be seeing an option to keep all without having to select individual photos.

Reach back out if you still have questions.

Have a great day!
