If you store all the photos on your iPhone, then you are probably killing a lot of time searching for the desired picture, especially if it was taken many years ago. For example, suppose you want to once again admire the beautiful sunset that you photographed in addition to dozens of other landscapes and portraits while on vacation five years ago.

In this case, you need to scroll and scroll through the photos ... and scroll again. Large galleries require a lot of patience, because once you find the photo you want, you have to scroll again, this time to get to the newest photos.

Fortunately, Apple has provided a special gesture that allows you to be at the very bottom of the gallery in the blink of an eye. In order to quickly move to the bottom of the list, simply click on the appropriate tab. If you browse your collection of photos by year in the Photos tab and scroll backwards, clicking on the Photos tab will take you to the bottom of the list where the most recent photos are. This method works in any tab in the Photos app.

In turn, touching the status bar (top of the screen) will instantly take you to the first photo.

Suppose you are viewing one of your saved albums in the tab "Albums"... You need to select a few of the most recent photos, but you accidentally clicked on the top of the iPhone or iPad screen, which in Photos and other apps takes you up. How do you get back down? It's very simple - just click on the tab again "Albums".

Prompt: if you are already at the bottom of the album, clicking on the tab "Albums" takes you to the album list screen.

With tab "For you" things are a little different, with the most recent images at the top, not the bottom. Regardless, the basic idea is the same. For example, you have scrolled through the list in "For you" to the middle and want to quickly get to the top, then just click on the tab "For you"... As with the tab "Albums" if you click on the tab "For you" after opening one of the memories, you will be transferred to the screen with a list of all memories, that is, you will take an action "Back".

The next time you get lost in the plethora of photos taken a long time ago, remember that you can always go back to the most recent photos with just one tap. This super trick is not mentioned in the documentation or in Apple instructions, so not everyone knows about it, but it has been present in iOS for several years.

iPhoto displays events or photos in the order in which they were captured, from oldest to most recent. You can reorder events or photos in your library or album by sorting.

Note: Sorting can only be performed by one criterion at a time. For example, you can sort photos in an album by date, then sort them by title, but you cannot sort photos by date, and then sort by title within a date.

And put the icons of games and programs in these folders, performing these actions allowed us to get rid of the clutter on the working screen of the device. Today, using the same iPhone and iPad, we will learn to create our own albums with photos. We will organize photo albums or folders with photos using the standard "Photos" application.

As devices for preparing today's instructions for creating photo albums, we used iPhone 4S with iOS 6.0 (Thanks Dina!) And Apple iPad 2 with firmware 5.0.1. In earlier versions of iOS firmware, it was not possible to sort photos in the iPhone itself using standard means. In the first versions of iOS, in the Photos application, it was possible using a computer, at the time of syncing with iTunes. Modern firmware allows you to create photo albums right in the device. We propose to consider the process of creating folders for photos separately for iPhone and iPad:

Photo albums in Apple iPhone
To make the instruction more understandable, I will explain what we are going to do now - we will create a new folder in the Photos application and fill it with some photos from the Camera Roll section. The real way to create photo albums on the iPhone can be crushed by iPod Touch users.

1. Launch the "Photos" application and press the button with the "+" sign in the upper left corner, which will create a new album. After pressing the button, the program will ask you to enter the name of the album to be created. Enter the name, we entered "Tuzik", and click - Save.

2. Now we need to add photos to our created folder, for this we go to the "Camera Roll" section, which stores a lot of photos taken by the iPhone camera. We mark with a marker the photos of our Tuzik, located in the chair, and press the button - Done.

That's all, our new folder with photos has been created, if you click on it, we will see all the previously selected photographs of our dog.

Photo albums on Apple iPad
You can also organize and organize your photos into folders on your iPad. This is done in the same standard "Photos" application. You can create albums not only for the captured photos, but also for. In the iPad example, let's try to create an album of collected car photos:

1. Go to the "Photos" program and press the button - Change (upper right corner).

2. By clicking the Change button, a button will appear on the left - New album, which should be clicked, enter the name of our autoalbum and Save.

3. All actions are almost the same as in the case of the iPhone. We select our cars and click - Done. The only difference is the presence of the Select all photos button, which was not on the phone.

That's all, the photos are sorted on the iPad, all the images of the car are in a separate folder.

Now you know how to create an album in iPhone / iPad and organize all photos and pictures on your phone, tablet or player. And all this without the help of iTunes.

When making new folders and albums on the iPhone or iPad, the user gets the impression of duplication, but I think, in fact, the made folders only store shortcuts to photos. Although you can experiment and make sure that the photos in the created folders do not take up additional memory space!

The Photos app for iPhone and iPad gives you quick and easy access to all your photos and videos. All Photos, Panoramas, Videos, and even Selfies have their own dedicated albums. The user cannot change or delete any of them, however, you can add and manage your own albums. Thus, you can conveniently organize your photos.

1. Run the application "Photo" on the home screen.

2. Click "Albums" at the bottom right of the navigation pane.

3. Click the button "Add"(looks like «+» ) in the top left corner.

4. Select "New album".

5. Come up with a title for the new album.

7. Select the photos or videos you want to add to this album.

8. Click "Ready" in the upper right corner.

9. The new album will appear in the tab "Albums".

How to add photos and videos to existing albums using the Photos app on iPhone and iPad

1. Run the application "Photo" on the home screen.

2. Tap an album to view its contents.

3. Click "Select" in the upper right corner.

4. Click on the button that appears at the bottom of the screen. "Add".

5. Click on the photos or videos you want to add and click the button "Ready".

You can create albums based on people, places, trips, photo types, and other criteria.

Today we will talk about how to organize photos in albums on iPad and iPhone.

Apple products enjoy the well-deserved love of its fans for a reason. And one of the main arguments in favor of this company is a well-thought-out user interface and the stability of the operating system as a whole. To be honest, at the moment, their mobile iOS 5.1.1 is perhaps the best among the competitors for tablets and smartphones.

But, as you know, there are no ideal systems. As it turned out, a seemingly rather simple task - to organize photos into albums on an iPhone or iPad, in fact, causes a lot of difficulties. So confuse the interface of the standard program Photo- I had to try! I hope in the sixth version of iOS something will change for the better in this regard.

Application Photo iOS is really pretty flawed. We are not talking about the actual viewing of photos, everything is in order with this, but the organization of storing photos is clearly lame. So, first, let's dwell on how the iPad or iPhone stores photos.

And here the first limitation comes out - the hierarchy of folders cannot be organized and all photo albums will be at the same level. Terribly inconvenient. For example, if you have a lot of photos and you want to sort them by year, but inside by events, then this will not work. To do this, you will have to use additional programs, for example iPhoto, which allows, among other things, to make photo albums, although the program is paid.

• Using iTunes. We indicate the directory with photos and on the iPad, during synchronization, the corresponding albums are created.
• By saving images from the Internet. Photos go to the album camera roll.
• Through a specialized adapter for reading SD memory cards of the camera.

Whichever method you choose to create albums, you will still not be able to move photos between them. This is the second, and perhaps the most disgusting and incomprehensible limitation. Although, the Apple company provided us with some "crutches", namely the ability to create our own albums directly on the iPad / iPhone.

But here it was not without a catch. You can add images to these albums only from existing albums, and the added photos remain in the original albums. As a result, albums created on the iPad store links to selected images from other albums rather than the photos themselves, which can be deleted at any time without affecting the original images. If you delete a photo from the original folder (album), it will automatically be deleted from the created album.

It remains to show with an example how to create your own albums on iPad or iPhone and add photos to them:

1. Open the application Photo and click "Change" in the upper right corner

2. Press the button "New album" in the upper left corner and enter its name, then press "Save"

3. Click on the photos you want to place in the new album (marked with blue and white flags). Images can be placed in more than one album (remember that these are just links to already uploaded photos).

At any time, in your created album, you can add images from other albums. To do this, click the arrow in the upper left corner and the "Add photo" button will appear. Then I think you will figure out what to do.

iPhoto displays events or photos in the order in which they were captured, from oldest to most recent. You can reorder events or photos in your library or album by sorting.

Note: Sorting can only be performed by one criterion at a time. For example, you can sort photos in an album by date, then sort them by title, but you cannot sort photos by date, and then sort by title within a date.
