Data Hoarder

We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time (tm) ). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.

I’d like to save some images without having to screenshot them on my iPhone.

Alternatively, I was also planning to save the images on my laptop where I could easily enable right click through a chrome extension but there were a lot of photos which ended taking too much time.

There were also options to use bulk downloader extensions, but they couldn’t obtain all the images.

I also attempted to use control+s which works a majority of the time, however, there are some sites that contain images in an order. When I do download, none of those images are downloaded in order which can be time consuming having to sort them again.

Is there a way I can bypass disabled right click on iPhone or is there another way I can download multiple images at once in the order it shows up in on the site while still bypassing disable right click?

Can you open the image in a new tab? If yes you can either go to share and save to files, or get the load file shortcut from the gallery, then select load file in the share menu.

In these cases I use the web inspector.

On top of that, I’d write a script in your selected programming language to properly find image links in light of your findings from web inspector, assign sortable names for files and download to selected folders. Let me know if you’re looking for more detail.

Opening the dev tools is sometimes enough to stop the anti-right click code from working. You can also then see images in the network/sources tab.
