I'm simultaneously intrigued and annoyed and a question for the UHH smartphone crowd

I use a Photo Transfer App ( www.phototransferapp.com/ ) to move photos from my iPhone to my PC or vice versa. I think it costs around $30, but it's easy to use and works efficiently.

I like both the Envy & the Gala.
There is a new kid on the block now called the 'Cosmic Crisp'.
It is really good & I highly suggest trying it.

Apple varieties vary widely between regions. In PA I liked Stayman Winesap which is a late apple, very firm and has a good sugar/acid balance. Found an orchard that had a few trees in MA and they were small, hard, and sour.

Thank you for the heads up!

I'm not an Apple man; it's another world I'm not very familiar with. (Whoops. Winston Churchill once said, " A preposition is a bad word to end a sentence with." LOL) From my Photo Folder on my Android phone I can send picture via email to myself then on to others. BTW I've done the same with my daughter's iPhone.


Supposedly Churchill was told that it was poor grammar to end a sentence with a preposition to which he replied, "That is the sort of nonsense up with which I will not put".

With AI, pretty soon you won't have to take photos yourself. Your phone will make friends with your friend's phones, and they'll go out together and have a good time. All you need to do is stay home and watch the videos they took.


Don't forget you will have MORE time for coffee and donuts as you watch videos.

My iPhone selects photos and makes short video "memories" for me. It combines music, video clips, and Ken Burns effect on stills into short video clips. The quality was a pleasant surprise to me. Those are my photos?!!? I like that!
Ok, it's not perfect but it's surprisingly good.

Why am I annoyed? My phone has better "vision" than me. Ok, I can to do this but it would take me hours for each one. Apparently my phone has more free time than me. LOL.

My question: Is there any way to download those videos and edit them for sharing with friends ?

Very well could be. And it does a decent job. However there is the occasional WIT (what is that!?) frame. But If I could download those videos, in an editable form, then remove the WIT images, then I could use those memories. That would save me hours of compiling videos by hand, for which I frankly, don't have the time. I wish I did, but I am not retired, I work full time.

I have not yet seen anyone suggest how to download the video in an editable format. Have seen Lots of suggestions on how to export a frame or share the on-line link. I know how to do those things.

FYI I don't feel any guilt having AI or whatever program, take images that I shot, and compile them into a usable video. That is simply utilizing the computer to save time. How is that any different from hiring someone to do it? And off the subject, the Writers Guild is right on target in wanting a discussion on how the Movie Industry will use AI.

Probably closer in time than you think. Just a bit scary. I'm thinking of firing my broker and letting AI pick my investments.

You just have to pick the right AI program

I was just reading about a group that did exactly that. AI did very well. Clearly changes are happening now. AI is here. It's not going away.

I still like northern spies, they make the best pies as my grandmother used to say.
