Q: QuestionCan I transfer pictures from an iPhone 11 to the Fire HD tablet without using a computer in between ? Either usb between them or Bluetooth ? Mom doesn’t have PC or internet. I will set up using my internet then gift it to her to view pictures.

Asked 4 years ago by Kevin.

This question was asked about the related product: Amazon - Fire HD 8 10th Generation - 8" - Tablet - 32GB - Black

• A:Answer Hi Kevin, the best way I have found to do this is download the Amazon Photos App on both devices and sign in with the same account info on both. (the app is free) and then you can sync your phone and it will put all of the photos on the app, and then when she opens the app on the tablet, she will be able to see the pictures that were synced and she can download them to the device from there if she would like to. Hope that helps.
