Recovering photos from a broken iphone

I have an iphone that won’t start because the display is broken I think. I want to recover my photos from it but I don’t tgink that all of them are saved in the icloud because I couldn’t pay the extra storage anymore when it broke. How can I recover them ? And can I use a macbook to do that?

iPhone 11 Pro, iOS 16

Try the following:


1 - connect the iPhone to your Mac with it's charging cable.

2 - hopping the camera will work try logging in with face recognition.

3 - if #2 works you can launch Image Capture and download all of your photos and videos to a folder on your Mac and from there into your Photos library as needed.


If the above doesn't work you may have to take the old iPhone along with your new iPhone into an Apple Genius Bar and see if they can transfer the files and other data over to your new iPhone. 🤞
