To transfer photos from PC to iPhone with iTunes:

1. Launch iTunes and connect your iPhone to PC with a USB cable.
2. Click on the device icon in the top-left corner of iTunes window.




3. From the panel on the left, choose “Photos”.
4. Tick the box “Sync photos” and choose the folder from which to import photos to your iPhone (Copy photos from -> Choose folder).

5. Click on “Done” and wait until iTunes finishes syncing your photos.
