Ratings and Reviews
Not intuitive at first
Really awkward to use and organise photos at first.
Im having to use a different photo app atm.
But id like to use this one as it saves me organising photos in 2 diff apps.
Two features that i think would win this over for me:
1- please have option to add entire albums or folders to hidden. This is main reason i use another app that does this.
2- id like to have some folders/albums not sync to my icloud. This is main feature missing from google photos too. So if this app did it. Itd be a clear winner.
For example id like to have some folders with albums on my device only. Just by selecting it/them and have an option saying “unsync” or “device only” or something.
This will allow better management of icloud space and mean it wont get filled with junk/non important photos/videos like memes that i like having but also dont care if i lose.
One additional feature id like but could live without if the other 2 implemented: an option to change the view/layout of folders
Im not sure what to, maybe something more generic or androidy, just for more options.
A few improvements
This app is so great I couldn’t give it anything less than five stars, but I do have some issues.
First up, though, I would just like to emphasise my love of the new updates in recent times! Now when you adjust the date and time of photos, they change position in the camera roll so you don’t have to find the old date when looking for them, and the new memory videos are very seamless and well-crafted.
However, many a time, I have found that when I play a video, the automatic mute function that was added a few years back gets in the way. I get that it’s supposed to be a helpful feature, and I’m not saying get rid of it, but it would be useful if you could turn it off in Settings if you find it inconvenient.
Also, since I got my phone I’ve had the issue that the memory videos are only created if at least one video was shot on that particular day. Sometimes, there are over forty images taken that day and it doesn’t create a video! Please fix this.
Thanks, that’s all for now! It really is a great app!
Used to swear by apple phots and edits
Now it’s a pile of crap in comparison , after 2 years of Samsung photos to come back to apple is like going back 4 years in high school, I don’t know why they have changed it so much it used to be far far better, the only cool feature is background removal and there’s so many steps to that it’s not like it’s easy one click job done, and on my iPad, it totally freezes ( brand new 3 week old latest iPad 256 gig iPad Pro) freezes just doin an edit on a basic photo, never had these issues before with iPhone in apple iPhone 8 Plus, or iPhone XS Max or any other iPads but iPhone 13 Pro Max and new iPad both running new iOS 16.1.1 is just a bloody nightmare, I’m sorry to say I miss my Samsung for photo capability and edits, apple you have a lot to learn from them still!!!! I’m actually shocked by how behind apple is and this is just both standard photo apps
