Vložit

- I reckon the Photos app on the iPhone is probably one of, if not the most used app by iPhone owners overall, yet I reckon most people don’t know half of what this app can do. So in this video, I’m going to share 10 tips and tricks for the Photos app on your iPhone, to help you get the most out of it. Stick with me until the end of the video, I reckon there are at least a couple of things in here that most people won’t know about.

Some new tips for me, thank you! One thing I learned that may be of use, when using the forward-facing camera, you can trip the shutter with your right index finger on the "Up-Volume" button, instead of trying to hit the Shutter button on the screen. Feels much more natural for those of us who grew up with SLRs/DSLRs.
Wow, never realised, thanks 😊
I’ve always thought the weakest parts for me of my iPhones 5, 6, SE are 1) photos 2) calendar. I hate that you can’t sort the photos into folders then delete from the main album.
I was coming here to write that. I am putting them in folders simply so I can delete them from my main album. But deleting them from there also deletes them from the folder. aaarrrggghhh!!!!!!
@@You-Be-The-Judge I even invested in the much advertised Photo Stick one summer to sort out all the photos on my MacBook Air Notebook but the thing failed miserably and was NOT the success and solution I was hoping for!
Yes, photos in (non-shared) albums (folders) are pointers to photos in the main album and need to remain in the main album. Experiment with shared albums.
@@arthendrickson4860 Shared? Don't really want to do that. I was actually hoping for a way that instead of just making a copy of the picture (Or a pointer) that I could just Move the picture much like you can do with a computer or an android.
I think it's just to make it easier to show or see certain photos
Thank you for making such lovely to the point no nonsense content related to iPhone and Apple in general. No time consuming intros, just getting straight to the point. I love the way you present information in an easy way. People who aren't techsavvy ill also be able to follow instructions and become a pro at using their devices. I always wait eagerly for you to upload a video on CZcams :). Have been subscribed to you for a very long time. God bless you mate, Love from India. I hope you reach a million subscribers by the end of 2023. :)
I have learn't a lot about iPhone because of you. Thanks again Tom :)
I hate intros unless it has purpose
@@MaiElizabeth yeah exactly
Here’s an enhancement to the ‘scroll to top/bottom of a folder’ tip.
As soon as you start to manually scroll, you’ll see a scroll bar appear on the right of the screen (like you’d have in Windows File Explorer, a Word document or Apple equivalent). Press+hold the scroll bar then drag and you can whiz up and down the folder much more quickly but you’re also not limited to just jumping to top/bottom.
Great tip, Dave.
Thanks Dave!
@@Future_Dave Came here for just this tip and learned a whole lot more from the video! Thanks for adding.
When you merge duplicate photos, does it count a photo in an album and an identical photo in the library as duplicates?
Could you explain why some photos show up when you are on the camera app and selecting the photos on bottom left but they do not show up in the photo library?
Great - definitely learned many things. 2 questions:
1) How would you add a location to info of a say "cruising the Atlantic"?
2) Once I get a newer iPhone that can recognize items in photos, can you get it to populate all the photos that are in the library prior to the new phone?
I am using my US iPhone 14 Pro in México. It’s amazing how many of these special tricks are not available here. I cannot use “long exposure” at all. I can isolate the subject of a photo and paste it into a message, but cannot add special effects such as balloons, etc. I spend a lot of time trying to use all these tricks and shortcuts, and need to remember that many are subject to what country I’m in.
You’re probably doing it wrong. Keep trying.
Proper video!
Just yesterday I deleted some photos and of course regretted it today. I have backups with Google and Amazon but it wasn’t there. So glad you reminded me of the deleted photos album. I found the photo I wanted and recovered it. Hopefully I would’ve figured this out myself but your video saved me some time. As always, a great tips video.
Not in back ups?- that’s scary! Does that mean if you delete something from your photos album, that It is also deleting it from your backup programs? Does that include the iCloud back up program?
@@lpa9974 If you delete iPhone photos it deletes on all iCloud devices under the same iCloud account. My other backup programs were temporarily off auto backup hence no backup,of a recent photo. All is well now that auto backup of photos taken on the iPhone is back on auto mode.
Does using the long exposure use up a lot of storage space?
Love the long exposure segment but when I look at the photo in the photo app, I tap in the top left but can’t see the menu that gets me to long exposure option - which I would love. What am i doing wrong?!
It has to be a Live Photo that you take in the first place for this to work. Make sure you have Live Photo enabled when you take the photo, otherwise the option won’t be there.
@@ProperHonestTech Thank you. I absolutely love your videos, fantastic clarity - thank you
Wish there were a way to see into which folder(s) I put a photo.
Thanks for the info. BTW: I didn’t know Screen Recording existed until I saw this video and googled it. Don’t know how helpful that is without audio or editing tools to explain what you’re trying to document…
Don’t you get to choose which album you put the photo in after pressing add to album …you can also arrange photos using the file manager sending photos to iCloud,google drive external storage etc
@@JONJon-COD yes, but I can’t tell if I already moved a photo into one or two albums.
@@arashy I know exactly what you mean . I created so many copies especial uploading in iCloud or Google drive entire galleries gets duplicated
@@arashyin phone settings optimizing storage for photos keep original or erase option maybe choosing erase when a photo is moved it really moves . Because I remember a moment reading and album it completely erased it from the gallery . Right know I don’t wanna experiment till I’m able to find a combination of devices that can work for me that affordable. If iCloud wasn’t a subscription base price on memory things would be easier
@@JONJon-COD I’d like a move or copy option on a picture by picture basis, not all or nothing. AND I ALWAYS want to keep the original in the Recents album.
What’s the proper way to delete all your photos from your phone if you need to clear some space. Are the pictures still in the cloud, if so how do I retrieve them. I also have Google photos and use it but would like to know how there all saved with the cloud. Thank you
So helpful as always. I find it frustrating that the functionality on phone and iPad are different. Come on Apple!
Great stuff, Tom, found all sorts of things here. Why on earth doesn't Apple say somewhere that "touch the album" to get to the bottom of photos, and "touch the time" to get to the top. It is incredibly frustrating! Thank you.
I just tried, what fun!
You can also press the share button next to copy after you lifted a photed from the background, then in share you can select save photo and it will be saved to your camera roll.
I am learning so much from you.
I did that move photo into text thing (this is my level of tech speak lol), but I don’t get as many choices to do for the photo. I get that repeat thing but not confetti??
Tap the word "Screen" at the top and a line of dots will appear at the bottom. Then just tap each dot for a different effect.
Very helpful…..how do you go Top to Bottom (and back) on the iPad?…..I can go to oldest, but can’t work out how to get back! :- )
Tap the Library icon at bottom of screen.
@@rdailey4 - Thanks, pressing the Library Icon gets me back to the latest image, but how do I move to the oldest?…..on iPad (different from iPhone) Thanks
@@WatchDSSID On Iphone I tap the time in upper left corner to go to the oldest photo and then Library icon to go back to newest photo. Not sure about Ipad.
@@rdailey4 - thanks I’ve worked it out now - it’s top right Battery Percentage icon on the iPad to go to the first image & then top left “Library” to go back :- )
Thank you so much.
I don't have most of the extra options you've talked about even though I've the most up-to-date IOS???
Some features are iPhone-model dependent.
Someone else showed me the tapping on a photo where it removes the subject and you can place the subject to say in a text. I have iPhone 13 pro max, but I cannot get it to do it no matter how much I tap on the subject in a photo. it does not scan it -darn!
the Photo quick to top doesn't work on a iPhone SE 2??
Try anywhere top right
Thanks again for the tips. I would love to know how to merge ALL the duplicates - I have 6,406 of them! Don't really want to tap "merge" that many times.
Oh wow, yes that's a lot! Perhaps it's something Apple could roll out in a future update, for people like yourself with a lot to work with.
@@ProperHonestTech Let's hope.
Thank you.
What do you guys do with your old Apple devices that are at or almost at max storage and lose battery power v quickly? I can listen to my music if keep the charger in but my playlists don’t show up on the old devices … (iPhones 5, 6 & iPad mini)
Great information.
Thanks!
Thank you very much!
The look up function doesnt work in my country sadly. Like what you did with the dog to show what type of dog it was. Same for other things like flowers etc.
Thanks for your post. So much useful information, with a clear and straightforward presentation. I've had iPhones since they came out (2008 I think), not every one of course, and I'm always interested in learning new features. Good job!
Great suggestions and tips! Especially the one about using hashtags in the caption field. Which raises the question of whether there is a way to bulk edit or bulk apply hashtags?
Really good video and great tips! You did a great job walking people through the steps needed to perform the actions, very well done!
As always ... I think I know a function... and then I watch your tutorial and learn so much! Thank you!!
Is long exposure available on the iPhone 8s? Thank you!
Thanks for the tips. These are great for the novice user! I've had an iphone for many years, but just do limited stuff, your videos expand my horizon in iphone!
Thanks so much for this video-I did pick up a thing or two!👍 i’m not sure if this is the proper place to make a request regarding BOOKMARKS on the iPhone, but this is the biggest bane of my life!! I bookmark everything I need to categorize or return to for any reason. The truly infuriating part is that when I am searching for a bookmark, I am unable to collapse the folders in which case I am required to scroll through hundreds, if not thousands, of bookmarks to find the information I need. I am really hoping that I will find a video by you addressing this problem (hopefully with a solution). Or if there is nothing on this topic yet please, can you do a video to tell me that all hope is not lost. Ha! 🙃 Thanks for all your help- you are much appreciated. 🙏
Great tips! I don't have Visual Lookup yet but I learned about Google Lens from a friend. It took me a minute to figure it out (okay, I googled it lol) because it's within the Google app. Does the same thing until I get the new feature on my phone.
Thank you. I’m a senior, love taking pictures. I enjoyed your tips
Another great video and I did learn a few new tips!
Thank you so much once again for another fantastic educational video. I’ve had so much fun with iPhone photos as a result of your videos. Your presentation style is first class and instructions 100% accessible. 🙏
That's very kind of you...
Excellent tutorial. Many thanks!
Have you done a review of your computer screen? / table set up. I’m looking into getting a computer screwdriver and would love to know your thoughts 💭
The screen I use is the Pro Display XDR by Apple. I've never reviewed it, but there are plenty of reviews of it online. Apologies if I've missed something in the comment, but I'm not sure what the link between the display is and a computer screwdriver? (I don't have any experience/recommendations of those)
Apologies I just didn’t know how to ask you other than use your most recent post.
Thanks
Thank you very much!
Super helpful, thanks so much!
Many thanks for an excellent presentation. The long exposure facility will be very useful to me-brilliant!
Thanks for you all the tips. That one about just selecting the center image and copying and pasting it is amazing.
Is there a functional difference between adding a caption and adding a hashtag? Or is a hashtag effectively simply a caption preceded with a #?
No functional difference to the best of my knowledge, more of a personal preference thing.
thanks but why u not replay for our comments ?
I reply to as many comments as I can. I get hundreds, and I can’t reply to all of them, especially when so many have questions that need long, detailed answers.
@@ProperHonestTech ok boss thx for replying cause I ask you many times before but no replay ..
Another brilliant video.
Thank You. have learned a lot from your videos. Do you know how to add an image to your iPhone or iPad signature?
Duplicate folder not showing though i have a lot of duplicate pictures.
I learned so many things! Thanks so much for sharing!
Wonderful tips ❤❤❤😂😂
Is it possible to add some photos taken from a different device to icould and eventually have it available on the iphone too? I recently switched from android and I have bunch of photos and videos which i want on my icloud and iphone . Please let me know how can this be done.
Great video, thanks.
Thank you very much for the tips. Love your videos.
I have IOS 16.5 but an iPhone 8, can I not copy and paste a subject because of iPhone 8 part? Help?
You’re correct, the feature is not available on the iPhone 8. You’d need a XS or newer.
Lookup visual is no longer there since iOS 16.2
Can you do a video on *Lockdown Mode* …? I come from a region that's more popular with WhatsApp then care about iMessage and think a proper video on this would garner a lot of views & attention.
Is it possible to take good quality photographs using an iPhone 7 Plus?
Another great video! Thank you!
These are great tips, thanks. Even though I’ve had iPhones for years, I’m getting extra tips from all of your vids, and these photo tips are very helpful. Thanks again 😊
Thanks!
I didn't know about the _Paste Location_ feature!
I will definitely be using it in the future!
This was so helpful, thank you!
I am loving all the features of the photos album but the thought of sorting/tagging/capturing over 18,000 photos is a real dread!
TQSM for going straight to the point. Great tips. God bless you!
Fantastic tips!
In Live Photo mode, one can select the best photo and make it a “no live” by choosing this option.
THANKS PROPER 👍 good suggestions I’ll have to try.💚💚💚
I want to subscribe to your videos, but my iPhone 11 promax 16 point plus doesn’t give me the subscribe option. What is my problem?
Great tips. Thanks
This was amazing! So many things I did not know could be done on this app. Thank you!
These tips were Great!!! I learned so much. Now if I can only remember them.
I make share albums with myself and put photos there that I want to keep.
Hello! I love your content but I can't keep up with you. Each device is different in the settings, as you know. So, I methodically take time to rewind so I can learn what the FIRST setting is that you touched. Otherwise, all the rest of it I'm lost. Could you please pause at the very first setting, or have the sequence written on the screen? That would be awesome. ;-) Keep it up! :-))
If your iPhone is up to date, the settings are not different for different devices, so I disagree with your point there. Also, any time I discuss settings in the video, the steps are clearly labelled on screen. 🤷🏻♂️
Tip at 5:35 is great!
Thank you. I'd gorgotten one of two of these!
One of the best youtubers ❤️
3:57 I wish apps like WhatsApp didn't strip metadata from images.
Tx man, u are Genius, we are od people with new i phones :) lifted image in Message with effect is amaizing. We tried via imessage, we assume that it works exclusively between iphone and that the operator will not charge us for MMS :). All best from Croatia
Brilliant I had 198 Duplicate photos 😂 Thank You
That lift photo feature does not work on my iphone 8
You are such a great host you should be a teacher
Excellent video. These were all very useful tips that will make my iPhone experience even better, Thank you so much! I’m about to binge watch all of your other videos. New subscriber here, 🙋♂️.
Very nice video. I pickup some new things that will be very handy. Thank you 🙏
Very useful content in wonderful English - four tips I’d forgotten or didn’t know!
WHAT ABOUT THE WHITE DOG WITH MANY IMAGES ON SAME PICTURE. ?????
It's the 'cut subject from photo' chapter, which I then pasted into Messages. It's just that the dog in the video was brown, not white 😂
Most important "camera roll" folder is missing 😢.We need to search entire gallery to find the photo clicked through camera.
One thing I hate about the photos app is when you create an album rather than moving all the pictures you put in sed album it just copies it so the stuff you put on there stays on your recents 👎🏾
Other tips are text and QR code recognition...
Thank you from Germany
None of the Photo lift stuff wanna work on my iPhone, and it's up to date with 16.5.1 so what am I missing???
Thanks!
Thank you very much!
