Dave Grochocki, principal product manager lead for Microsoft’s Windows inbox apps, said that “we know that many Windows customers have photo and video collections on their iPhones that they would like to be able to view on their PC. This iCloud Photos integration will make it easier for those with an iPhone to have direct access to all their cherished memories in one organized place and is another step in our continued efforts to make experiences on Windows 11 seamless.”
Microsoft has been getting some love from Apple
