I’m having difficulty using the photos app, while I can neatly view photos in date order on the photos tab,...
the same can’t be said for the albums=>all photos in this album I have a mess like 16k + photos not organized by any criteria whatsoever...
No anyone would ask why would I care. Well here is the thing...when I want to post a photo let’s say using the Facebook app, Instagram, Tapatalk and May other (either built in or 3rd party apps), when attempting to retrieve a photo they seems to be retrieve from this folder “albums=>all photos” and they are not in date order either. I may have a picture I took 3 days ago, next to a picture I took 3 years ago and this becomes a big issue when you’re device has 16,000 plus photos.
I use iCloud Photo Library and for the past few weeks have been albums into date folders, sorted by month-year (eg: 2007 March, 2007 April, 2018 Jan and so on...),
A workaround:
but even this doesn’t help because when I want to post a picture the secondary app I’m using defaults me to the “albums=>all photos” album and if I remember the correct year, month picture was taken I have to find the folder I created, other wise I have to exit the app, go to the photos app, search the picture up, open it, take a screenshot and it will stay as the last photo taken, then go back to the current app (eg: Facebook), add the photo and the last screenshot taken will show on the “album=>all photos” as the last image taken by date,time I guess. I only wish all photos in the “albums=>all photos” we’re sorted neatly by date order just like the “photos” tab.
