I Know it's possible to import photos from a SD card to the iPhone using the SD card reader (I have one) but it is possible to do it the other way round, i.e. move photos from the iPhone to a SD card either using the built in software or a third party app?
Thanks
Hi.
Below items maybe what you are looking to find. I have a lightning to USB adapter with flash disk that works both ways with an app from the maker of the adapter. But I don't know if below adapters work the same way.
Hope this helps.

Thanks. I really only asked because I already have the Apple lighting SD card reader and a supply of SD cards and it seemed like a simple way to store and backup photos when I don’t have access to a computer or iCloud. I was hoping there was a simple way of doing it in iOS but it seems there isn’t.
Thanks. I’ll give it a try. There seems to be a number of simian apps in the App Store, each dedicated to their own hardware. Whether yours or any of the others will work with the Apple SD card reader, I’ll have to find out. If any do work, I’ll report back.
Hi ytzabar. Also, take a look at FileExplorer. It can access Photos and some external devices. It might be able to see the SD card reader.
Do you require that this be an SD card? There are some Lightning memory stick devices (e.g. SanDisk) that can certainly store photos.

You can search for different tools to do this but it can also be done by using a computer.
Thank you. However, the solution you point to requires a computer and I was looking to see if there was a way of doing it directly.
Thanks. I already have the hardware as mentioned in my original post. What I need is software. What is the name of the app that you use?
Hi.
The name of the app is Lexar Mobile Manager. But this app may only work with Lexar products, I believe. But you may try it. If it doesn't work, you can easily uninstall it.
Hope this helps.
That’s ‘similar’, not ‘simian’ which would be interesting 🤔
