Moving from iOS 18 to iOS 26, Apple is actually making important changes in how users will take advantage of the upcoming iPhone’s Photos app
A year ago, Apple introduced the latest design revamp to the iPhone’s Photos app, only to follow it up with another major change this year. During the WWDC 2024 keynote, many Apple users were furious about the design tweaks, especially as Apple removed the sidebar in favor of new collections and carousels.
While the company did improve the Photos app with iOS 18.2, adding the ability to sort albums alphabetically, by date created, or manually, along with enhancements for viewing videos and navigating Collection views, many users were still unhappy with the changes.
Now, moving from iOS 18 to iOS 26, Apple is making meaningful updates to how users interact with the Photos app.
