Photo Memories - View Photos taken today, XX years ago?

[Phat^Trance]

Are there any app (or any other way) that shows me the photos taken today, but 1,2 ,3 etc years ago? Some kind of photo memory album?

I do know that Google photos have something similar, but i want to be able to display my icloud photos

I tried this shortcut but the problem with it is that it creates one collage when I have more than one photos. If I for example have 30 images taken last year I want to view them separately and not one collage with small thumbnails

That's gonna be even simpler. https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/4e14452e1947451aada7e0cd9f2c4f4a
Change the repeat value to modify how many years you want to search back.

So this one goes back with 20 years right?

I was also wondering if it is possible to display the date when the images was taken? Right now it doesn’t show me which photo is from what year, which can be a bit confusing when displaying a lot of photos

If you tap on any photo it shows the date above the photo in the menu bar

Nope, for me it shows only 1 of 5 photos, no date at all. Do you have a screenhot?

Just run this shortcut, didn’t realize it was saving outside of the photos app.

In the photos app you can also search for the specific year and it will display all of those photos. Not as specific as you were looking for though.

Are there any good iOS apps (no shortcut) that shows photo memories / flashbacks in a good way?

The Photos app itself creates Memories on its own. It's automatic, so it might not always show what you're looking for, but it does look nice.

At risk of stating the obvious, you could simply enter "25 March" (or whatever date you wish) in the search bar in Photos. Tapping on any photo will open it up and show the year.

Just creating an album also automatically creates a memory movie (tap the … in the upper right hand corner) ;-)
