Today we are going to see how to download photos and videos from Flickr to my iPhone or Android cell phone in a simple way and above all in a few steps, so that you can create a backup copy of all the content that you upload to said social network.
It is normal for us to upload photos or images to the internet on networks such as Flickr among others. The problem comes when we want these photographs to either create a backup copy or upload them to another social network. How can we do?
Luckily, in the case of Flickr, we don’t need to use external programs or anything similar, since the same website allows us to comfortably download all the photos without any kind of problems. We can even download the videos in excellent quality.
