Agree with Brent on the iOS 18 Photo.app; I do not like it or its predecessor.

The new version is, IMHO, even less intuitive than the iOS 17 version.

The new photos is a nightmare.
I¡¯d like to switch back to iOS 17. I tired to do it but it was too complicated.
Even the keypad has been d¨¦sarrois (I wanted to write destroyed but iOS 18 has inserted french) by multiple keyboards appearing at the same time.

Thank you for that wonderful tutorial. I haven¡¯t updated yet but will be doing so shortly once my iPhone 16 arrives. This video will be immensely helpful in transition. Appreciate you posting it.? Sue Cordially, Susan Ferraglio-Genecco, DVM?

I updated to iOS 18 yesterday. Photos is definitely different. I see what they are trying to accomplish but there is a learning curve. As Apple does so often they have changed a number of settings and I'm still tracking those down to change them back to my preferred settings. I think that's rude. If you use grouped tabs in Safari it now takes three touches to change groups rather than two which is a step backward. Full brightness on the display is discernibly less bright, to the point I think about scanners being able to read bar and QR codes on the screen.

I'm on 18.0.1 on a 12 mini.

I understand why Apple changes settings with new OSes, but I agree, it is rude. They don¡¯t know what is best for each individual. One size does not fit all. David Brenner no more fits in the Hulks clothes, than vice versa.
They do it to showcase their new features, the newest and greatest smoke and mirrors, the newest sizzle to sell more steaks.But there is always resistance to change. Yes, by changing the settings and the defaults, more people with ¡°adopt¡± the new change faster, but also you will make more people angrier than if you let them decide to try the change themselves. Than there is the issue of little or no tutorials or manuals.

Brent,
?
I'm with you. Tutorials are available but the best are usually third party and take a while to come out.
?
I'd like to see a page in the post update screens that says "we'd like to update some of your settings - would you like to review the changes or leave everything as you have had it?"
?
It's my d@mn phone. Don't mess with my settings without permission.
?
I forgot to mention that iOS 18 moved most of the icons around on the control center. It's worse. Buttons for Home shortcuts take two touches instead of one. How is that good? The flashlight is buried in the middle of the screen where you have to hunt for it. Accessibility shortcuts (at least the one I use) are separated from the other shortcuts. The entire aesthetic is jumbled. Steve Jobs is spinning in his grave. I think they dug up Andy Warhol for the layout. There is a new sidebar with touch zones so small it makes you swear, and Bluetooth is now three touches instead of one and Airdrop is elevated to one instead of two. Not a good trade for me.
?
I get what they are trying to accomplish with Photos, but so far everything else seems to be change for the sake of change and makes using the product more difficult.
?
Please pardon me while I go outside to shake my fist at some clouds.
?
