Final yr I bought an iphone 8 which I join by means of USB to my Linux laptop computer (Debian 12 bookworm). Now I want to alter it as a result of the display screen is damaged. Earlier than doing that I want to save the images to my laptop computer. icloud will not be synchronizing as a result of there are to many photos. How can I synchronize photos to the Linux laptop computer?

I can see the system linked in my file browser, however solely a really small variety of app associated information directories seem (see screenshot)

enter image description here

Additionally

  • I suppose the image listing which ought to seem as DCIM in response to some boards is protected? The right way to change the iphone restrictions in order that photos are seen from my laptop computer?

  • Ought to I exploit one of many many file sharing apps?

  • The iphone’s listing seems with an “afc://…” deal with within the file browser. Due to a superuser Q&A I managed to open it and might see the app directories seen within the screenshot as such
