Users will need to have a two-factor authentication set up on their Apple ID accounts and ensure their Google Photos accounts have enough storage.

The process takes between three to seven days and can be found on Apple's privacy site under the "transfer a copy of your data" section.

However, the process only supports formats .jpg, .png, .webp, .gif, some RAW files, .mpg, .mod, .mmv, .tod, .wmv, .asf, .avi, .divx, .mov, .m4v, .3gp, .3g2, .mp4, .m2t, .m2ts, .mts and .mkv. and will only transfer the most recent edit of a photo or video.
