Comment 7 for bug 1904555

For the first time ever, I recently had the chance to test an iPhone with Rapid Photo Downloader.

Due to serious bugs in the way libgphoto2 interacts with the device, it is clear that Rapid Photo Downloader does not work optimally with the device. You might experience a dropped connection to the phone, or other problems.

The trick for now is to mount it yourself using instructions like this: https://www.maketecheasier.com/easily-mount-your-iphone-as-an-external-drive-in-ubuntu/

And then download from "This Computer", pointing the source folder to the mount point you manually created.

Probably I will need to automate this procedure in Rapid Photo Downloader.
