When you set Apple Photos to use iCloud to sync your image library, any changes you make to a picture or video in the app are updated on all of your devices that use iCloud, including your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Apple TV, Mac, and, yes, your Windows PC.

Even if your older phone or laptop can update to the newest operating system, the new Memories tab will be missing from the app's interface. The newest version of Apple Photos is compatible only with more recent hardware that has 64-bit processors, such as the iPhone 5s or newer.

With just a couple of taps or clicks, you can share your photos and slideshows via Message (text), Mail (email), iCloud Photo Sharing, Notes, Twitter, Facebook or Flickr, and you can even save a PDF to iBooks or share across Apple devices through AirPlay.Īpple Photos organizes, edits and shares not only photos and videos, but also Live Photos (the iPhone's burst capture of sound and movement before and after a photo is snapped on an iPhone 6s or later). You can also create your own memories from an Album or Collection. If you like what you see, you can save the Memory to your Favorite Memories album and share it. These Memories pop up almost as surprise gifts, and after Photos is installed, it can take days for any to be displayed (even if your iCloud library is already quite extensive).

Apple Photos scans through your library of photos and videos to create a collage card or slideshow movie of images that the app thinks are related (based on location, event, scene categories or people). The most significant recent addition to the app is the new Memories section. More useful is its People album and functionality, which make it easy to find, identify and group specific individuals in all of the pictures of people in your library. A very nice extra feature of Apple's geolocation is that when looking at the map detail for a specific photo or video, you can click to view nearby images, too.Īpple Photos did a pretty good job of recognizing faces, but it was no better or worse than every other app we've tested. When I searched for "tree," it found none of my tree pictures.Īs on Google Photos, Apple Photos has a map view that shows where your images were captured (if you had geolocation features enabled when you took them). For instance, when I searched for "dog," it found most, but not all, of my dog pictures.

How is this acceptable to Apple's leadership? This feels like a monopoly situation on my most important digital assets, my family photos.The search engine is nice, but it doesn't extend to full object recognition. I have 30,000 images over a 10 year span. I confirmed this with Apple Support today (10:30am PDT - James - 17:58min hold time) and they're recommendation was to not use any 3rd party app as they will likely corrupt the Apple Photo Library.Īpple support recommends importing all photos and going through them manually. This means Apple Photo will recognize a photo as a duplicate during an import if it has the same file name even when it's a different photo. So you will invariably end up with multiple photos with camera assigned names like IMG_0001 but they are different photos (with the same name). This issue I and I'm sure many others have is that the automatic image naming that various camera's use is often the same.
