Hi there… Apple really does just keep rolling out changes. Did you try rearranging the albums with the Customize and Reorder button at the very bottom of your Photos? Thank you for posting here! Mollie
There are other parts of the Apple ecosystem that are just as frustrating and we really don’t have any say as far as I can tell. Thank you for posting here! - Mollie
I hear you! They announced it this summer but most people are not paying attention to Apples product kickoffs. An email and a choice would be appreciated by many!
Hi Norma - If you hold down on the albums, you can move them around. There doesn't seem to be a sorting by name option unfortunately. So, hold the album down and then you can move it up or down. Hoping this helps! Cheers! Mollie
Ah. . yes you are thinking about Android. I know there is more flexibility with it but Google Photos is not great either. Here's a video about Google Photos: th-cam.com/video/QqxhgwCtwFg/w-d-xo.htmlsi=SzOLNg-vpczisazV Cheers! Mollie
I’m having trouble when I tried to add a text to the picture. It is not allowing me to change the color of the letters. Do you know if this is a common problem with the new update?
Hi there - I never add text to my photos. I see in the edit area (sliders) below the photo, you can markup with pencils. Is that what you are looking for? Cheers! Mollie
Hi Lanie - Unfortunately, as far as I can tell you can only press and hold on an album to remove it from one folder. This is a limitation for sure! If I'm going to organize on my phone, I'll create the folder first and then the albums inside of it. Hope this helps in some way! Mollie
It is so disappointing to not enjoy using the Photos app… I wish I had better news on that front…. Here’s what I recommend to our clients: www.thepixplan.com/FOREVER-Permanent-Storage … they too though have periodic updates…
Hi Mollie! Great overview of the new iOS 18 Apple Photos. I cannot update just yet. But to view the photos without the screenshots or to view only the screenshots will be very useful for me. 😉
Hi there - Click select at the top right in the Library View. Then click the Share icon. Scroll down the share options to "Add to Album" Hoping this helps! Cheers! Mollie
Thanks for mentioning this. I didn’t notice because I don’t typically edit photos too much. I did see the slider bar icon is visible for edits… Cheers! Mollie
Hi Erin - the more I am using it, the more I don't like it either. To get to the all photos view doesn't work well and I rarely use the other collections so I'm less thrilled now. I do use Forever to view my photo collection more on my phone because its easier to see my own organization. Thank you for commenting!
Hi there - once the newness wore off, I realize I'm not crazy about the changes either. Scrolling down to see the photos is especially tricky for me and I don't know why! I also am not using the collections I set up much either. Thanks for commenting and good luck! Mollie
I have to download 11GB of photos to update to the new 11GB update!!! They really want you to make monthly payments for ICloud. No Thanks Apple! I wish you could connect to bluetooth to PC and download pictures.
I wasn’t trying to be rude or disrespectful. I was just actually looking on how to edit and crop most people want subscribers, but I believe in my opinion short and to the point is the way to go for more subscribers
I'm starting to like it less and less. . . I hate how hard it is to swipe up into your photos to see them all. And, I find the collections aren't really useful like I thought. And, there's no way to go back. Apple just assumes we'll carry on with our collections and we are stuck. Android phones and Google Photos have their own issues as well. Thank you for commenting here. Cheers! Mollie
Your directions are vague and often confusing. Your frequent use of “sort of” makes information uncertain. Why not reviewing the information from the creator, Apple and present your data with a list of essential steps in a table?
We really have no say in how the updates roll out and if we want to keep up, we have to buy new phones, upgrade, etc. I wish there was a better option.
I wish I hadn't updated. Photos app a mess in my opinion
Same this update is absolutely useless. It's like someone on the design team said "how can we ruin our app and make it really inconvenient for users."

I’m really sick of Apples penchant for useless change with no warning.
I hear you! They announced it this summer but most people are not paying attention to Apples product kickoffs. An email and a choice would be appreciated by many!
How do you alphabetize the albums that you've named? I used to be able to do that so I can find an album easy but now I can't. Thank you!
Hi Norma - If you hold down on the albums, you can move them around. There doesn't seem to be a sorting by name option unfortunately. So, hold the album down and then you can move it up or down. Hoping this helps!

That’s it back to android, I’ve NEVER had this many problems and restrictions with a phone

The photo editor in my album does not work now the stickers option is not responsive at all
Hi Barry - That is so frustrating! I don't use the editor much or stickers at all. Thank you for commenting here.
Did not like the new Photos app at first. You did a phantastic job explaining. Reorganized it almost exactly like you showed. Thank you.
Fantastic, glad this helped!
Cheers!
Mollie
Thank you this was so helpful, I was pulling my hair out trying to figure out it out. How do you move albums into a folder?
Hi Lanie - Unfortunately, as far as I can tell you can only press and hold on an album to remove it from one folder. This is a limitation for sure! If I'm going to organize on my phone, I'll create the folder first and then the albums inside of it. Hope this helps in some way!

Great information. Thank you! 😀
Thank you so much!! : )
That was really helpful - thank you. Tech keeps getting better.
I found a few duplicates that I had for some reason, that was easy to get rid of them.
Hooray - glad to hear you like it!
And nice to see you again here! : )
You didn’t address the change when you are viewing a screenshot video. It’s like you can’t to back & forth in full size.
I hadn’t noticed that! That would be irritating!
I hate the update. My photos are on display when opening the photos app. I don’t want them on display like that

How do I get a photo from my pictures to an album? It does not work like it used to and I am stumped.
Hi there - Click select at the top right in the Library View. Then click the Share icon. Scroll down the share options to "Add to Album"
Hoping this helps!
Cheers!
Mollie
I still wish I could look at a single photo and tell whether it’s in an album or not.
That would be very handy!! Thanks for watching!
The edit tap is eliminated in ios18
Thanks for mentioning this. I didn’t notice because I don’t typically edit photos too much. I did see the slider bar icon is visible for edits…
Cheers!

I cannot stand the new Photos app interface. I absolutely hate it.
Hi Erin - the more I am using it, the more I don't like it either. To get to the all photos view doesn't work well and I rarely use the other collections so I'm less thrilled now. I do use Forever to view my photo collection more on my phone because its easier to see my own organization. Thank you for commenting!
I couldn’t find the roadmap download
Hi… here you go:
www.thepixplan.com/a-roadmap-to-organizing-your-photos
So sorry about this!
Cheers!
Mollie
Please include a TOC. That way when I search you video I can just go directly to the topic of interest. Thanks
I’ll try to work on this! Thank you for the suggestion!
Cheers!
Mollie
Not updating. I heard it’s terrible.

Hey… you can do this via USB cable. Watch this: th-cam.com/video/sFQEsB9UQE4/w-d-xo.htmlsi=3ovnDtar3qlDiY6G
You did a great job! But it's overwhelming! 😊
Thank you! The more you get in and look around, delete unneeded photos and more, the easier it will get!
Informative but way too long.
I’m looking for EDIT but Lordy.

Thanks for commenting! I love feedback and try to improve! ; ) Hoping you found the edit area - the sliders at the bottom under the photo.
IOS 18 Photos is the worst thing Apple has Done by far, TOTAL RUBISH
I'm starting to like it less and less. . . I hate how hard it is to swipe up into your photos to see them all. And, I find the collections aren't really useful like I thought.

Hi Jule,
Thanks so much for trying to watch my video. I will keep this feedback in mind for future videos.

iPhone is the worst format ever, stop forcing so many features and useless crap
We really have no say in how the updates roll out and if we want to keep up, we have to buy new phones, upgrade, etc. I wish there was a better option.
Complete trash of a phone
Maybe Android is your next phone?
