How do I copyright photos taken on a iPhone?

In the United States and many other countries, photographs are automatically granted copyright protection the instant you take them. They are your property, and you have the exclusive rights to copy, print, publish or use them (except for certain Fair Use situations, where others may use them for limited purposes).

However, if you want to registeryour copyrighted photos with your country’s copyright office, you can transfer your iPhone photos to a computer so that you can then print or upload them for the registration process. It’s typically a matter of plugging in your iPhone into your computer via an USB cable and clicking the Import button of the relevant app that pops up, or some version thereof. But you can also transfer your photos from your iPhone to a computer via email, instant messaging, through a file hosting service like iCloud or Dropbox, etc. If your country allows for electronic filing of copyrightable works, such as does U.S. Copyright Office, you may be able to upload your photos directly through your iPhone’s web browser when filing your registration, although this is not something I’ve tried.
