Ask HN: how to get photos from my Chinese friend iPhone

Hi,

I spent 2 weeks vacations in France (I'm French) with a friend from (mainland) China.

She took thousand of photo with her iPhone, so I didn't feel the need to take photos too.

However when she wanted to share the photos with me we discovered that I can't access her Baidu cloud account on my PC nor do I find the same app on my Android phone.

So now she's back in China and we're left wondering how she can share photo with me, except by sending a few dozen everyday on Wechat.

There's nothing sensitive about the photos so I'm not worried about her government (or mine) looking at them, I just want to get these photos the easiest way possible. She has no other "computer" than her iPhone, and I don't want to involve her in some shady VPN things that could backfire on her.

Thank you for your suggestions.
