Slideshows that just work. Start a slideshow from any album, or select a few photos and let them play immediately.

A more fluid gallery. Photos now expand right from their thumbnails and smoothly settle back when you’re done. Swipe up on any photo for a redesigned info view, including a map that shows where it was taken.

Select by dragging. Sweep across the grid with your finger to select many photos at once, and see the selection count update as you go.

Better video playback. Unmuted videos now play with sound even when the ringer is on silent. Audio continues naturally between videos, and playback resumes correctly after you switch apps.

And much more. The calendar opens to the right day, empty albums can offer to delete themselves, Cleanup explains exactly what it will match, and there are dozens of visual refinements throughout the app.
