BloberCloud transfer
Move files from iCloud Drive + Photos to Google Drive
iCloud Drive holds the files and the photo library behind an Apple ID. Blober writes into iCloud Photos as well as reading the drive. Blober moves the files straight from iCloud Drive + Photos into Google Drive, with no download-and-re-upload step in between.
How the transfer works
Three steps between iCloud Drive + Photos and Google Drive.
- 1
Connect iCloud Drive + Photos and Google Drive
Add both accounts in Blober and sign in on your own machine. Credentials stay local; nothing is proxied through a server.
- 2
Choose what moves
Browse iCloud Drive + Photos, filter by folder, date or type, then set the folder it should land in on Google Drive.
- 3
Start and walk away
Blober runs transfers in parallel, resumes after a dropped connection, and reports every file it moved.
Both ends, connected properly
Managed accounts, not a shared folder and not a workaround.
Source
iCloud Drive + Photos
iCloud Drive holds the files and the photo library behind an Apple ID. Blober writes into iCloud Photos as well as reading the drive.
Destination
Google Drive
Google Drive is the file store inside Google One and Google Workspace. Blober moves Drive folders and files out without re-downloading them by hand.
Why move files from iCloud Drive + Photos to Google Drive with Blober
Cloud-to-cloud copying without a server in the middle, a script to maintain, or a per-gigabyte bill.
- No download and re-upload
- Files stream between the two accounts, so the library never has to fit on your disk first.
- One-time licence
- No per-transfer fees and no storage tiers of its own, just the price of the app.
- Resumable by default
- A dropped connection pauses the run instead of restarting it, and failed files retry.
- Credentials stay local
- Blober talks to both providers from your machine, so your logins are never held elsewhere.
iCloud Drive + Photos to Google Drive: questions
What people ask before moving files between these two.
How do I move files from iCloud Drive + Photos to Google Drive?
Install Blober for desktop, connect both accounts, choose iCloud Drive + Photos as the source and Google Drive as the destination, then start the transfer. Blober lists what it can see first, so you can pick folders before anything moves.
Can I transfer from iCloud Drive + Photos to Google Drive without downloading the files?
Yes. Blober streams each file from iCloud Drive + Photos to Google Drive instead of saving it to your disk and uploading it again. You do not need the free space, and nothing is left behind in a temporary folder.
Is there a file size or transfer limit?
No. Blober does not cap file size, file count or total volume, and it does not charge per transfer. The only limits are the ones your iCloud Drive + Photos and Google Drive plans already have.
What happens if the connection drops part way through?
Blober resumes. It retries failed files and continues from where it stopped, so a long migration does not have to start again from zero.
Are the folders and file names preserved?
Yes. Blober recreates the source structure at the destination. You can also apply a path template to sort files by date, type or size as they land, which helps when the source is a camera roll rather than a tidy folder tree.
Does my computer need to stay on?
Yes. Blober is a desktop app, so the transfer runs on your machine between your two accounts. That is also why your credentials never leave it.
How much does Blober cost?
Blober is a one-time licence, not a subscription. There are no per-transfer fees and no storage tiers of its own: you pay once, and every provider is included.
