I used to get aggravated with tapatalk but I must say that I find the newest version of tapa the easiest for me to get pics up. I actually go out of my way to use the phone for that and then edit and add text from my laptop. I'm on Android though so I can't say for sure what the user experience is like on IOS. Dropbox or something similar is another easy way to transfer between the phone and computer. Hope that helps, good luck.
