Microsoft’s latest app will let you easily transfer your photos from phone to PC over WiFi

Microsoft has recently developed an app called ‘Photos Companion’. With the help of this app, you can easily transfer the photos in your mobile device to your Windows 10 pc over WiFi.

According to Microsoft, the ‘Photo Companion’ was created to help kids get images and other content from their multiple devices into one project PC, from which they want to present their multimedia presentation. Because, before the launch of the app in 2017, the app product team has conducted visits to the various European and US classrooms to see how teachers shared the content which is in their mobile device to the classroom PC, and to encourage them to use the app for this purpose.
