Part 2: Send Videos from Computer to iPhone via Dropbox

Another alternative way to transfer videos to your iPhone without iTunes is to use Dropbox. But it would take more time and it would be more complex than PanFone Manager when transferring videos or movies to your iPhone. Additionally, every user only gets a limited amount of space for free on Dropbox. If you wish to transfer content in bulk, then this is not a good option.

The following are the steps of how to transfer videos from laptop to iPhone:

Step 1: Open Dropbox on your PC if you have one and sign into it.

Step 2: Go to upload and tap on the + icon to create a new folder or add a new file.

Step 3: Then you can upload the videos you will transfer to your iPhone.

Step 4: Launch the App on your iPhone and find the videos in the folder you created. Now you can download the videos to your iPhone.

Part 3: Transfer Videos from Computer to iPhone with iCloud

If you have an iCloud account and free storage (iCloud provides 5GB for free) on it, then you can also add videos to the iPhone via your iCloud drive.

Please refer to the following steps to transfer videos from PC to iPhone.

Step 1: Go to iCloud.com on your computer, or simply sign in your iCloud account on your iPhone. Here you should log in to the same iCloud account if you prefer to connect your iPhone with your computer to transfer the videos.

Step 2: iCloud allows two ways to sync your files, including iCloud Photos and iCloud Drive. Once you signed in iCloud, then you can choose Photos or iCloud Drive to upload the videos on the computer to your iPhone.

Step 3: Start transferring videos and downloading videos to your iPhone. Choose the videos on your computer and you can get access to these videos then. Choose the videos you prefer to download to your iPhone. Here you must make sure your iPhone has enough capacity to store these videos.
