Exporting photos from Fieldmaps with online ONLY (no access to pro)

Hi, I previously (when I had access to ArcPro / PC ) was able to export my photos from Fieldmaps. I now only have access to AGOL because of my OS limitations (mac). 

All the posts/videos I've seen relating to using AGOL to download Fieldmaps photos requires bringing it into Pro (and using python etc). Is there any way to use AGOL ONLY to download these photos? I did a whole mapping project while assuming this wouldn't be an issue, and I might be very out of luck if it's not possible.

Thanks for the help!

Using the ArcGIS Online web interface, you can only really save photos one-by-one (as far as I know), either by browsing photos in Map Viewer or the Data tab of the item page.  (Edit - Alternatively, you could also use an app that makes it a little more efficient to browse photos, like the Attachment Viewer Instant App)

If you use the REST API and Python, you can create a bulk download process.  This doesn't require Pro, it doesn't require the ArcGIS API for Python either (although it's easier if you use it than without it).  I don't use Mac but I'm fairly sure there are no issues using the API on a Mac.  Actually, you can use just about any programming language, Python isn't even a requirement.

Here's a sample showing how to use the API to download photos:
