Move your iCloud photos to Google Photos or an SSD. Verified before anything is deleted.
Migrate Moments exports your entire iCloud Photo Library at full quality, then checks every file has arrived before it will remove anything from iCloud — so you can stop paying for storage you don’t need.
Nothing is deleted until every file is verified. Free scan — no account, no card.

The easiest way to move from iCloud to Google Photos.
Connect your Google account, set your archive age, and Migrate Moments handles the rest — downloading originals from iCloud and uploading them directly to Google Photos at full quality.
- Full resolution — HEIC, RAW, MOV all preserved
- Smart deduplication — already-uploaded photos are skipped
- Safe deletion — verifies uploads before removing from iCloud
- Warning if photos only exist in Google Photos (no local copy)
- Works overnight — pause and resume any time
Your originals stay in iCloud until every file is confirmed in Google Photos.
Nothing leaves iCloud until it exists somewhere else.
Migrate Moments checks every single file at its destination before it will delete anything — and you confirm the deletion yourself.
Your originals, in iCloud
Full-quality photos and videos — HEIC, RAW and MOV included. Nothing has moved yet.
Copied to your destination
Downloaded from iCloud and written to your external drive, a folder, or Google Photos at original quality.
Only then, removed from iCloud
You confirm the deletion yourself, and it only ever runs on files already confirmed present somewhere else.
If a file cannot be verified, it is not deleted. Migrate Moments will also warn you before removing anything that would only exist in Google Photos, with no copy of your own.
How it works
Three simple steps to free up your iCloud storage — without losing a single photo.
Scan your library
Migrate Moments analyses your entire Photos library and shows exactly how much space you can reclaim — for free, no account needed.
Choose your destination
Connect your Google account and photos upload directly — accessible anywhere.
Free up iCloud
Once every file is verified in Google Photos or on your drive, remove them from iCloud with one click. Nothing is deleted until you confirm.
Verify before delete
Every file is confirmed in its destination before anything is removed from iCloud. If a photo is only in Google Photos with no local backup, you'll be warned before deletion.
Smart chunked downloads
Downloads in smart batches that respect your available disk space — handles libraries of any size without filling up your Mac.
Smart deduplication
Already exported to SSD or uploaded to Google Photos? Migrate Moments tracks every file and skips duplicates — safe to run multiple times.
See it in action
Scan first to see exactly what's reclaimable, then archive it wherever you want it.
