what is the best way to move my photos out of iCloud but save them.

my IPad has the same photos as my phone so can’t move them there.

iPhone 14, iOS 16

Hey there ellen_48,


It would make sense that your iPad and iPhone have the same photos as you're using iCloud Photos, and it's designed to sync any edits/deletions/additions in the Photos app on both devices.


Moving forward with your question, we believe that you're asking how to back up your iCloud Photos to a Windows PC based on your post topic selection. If this is the case, then the steps to do this can be found under the section 'On your Mac or PC' from this article: Download iCloud photos and videos


Cheers!
