IOS 8 - Photos app bug - "stuttering" effect on Year view

Hi Folks,
On the iPhone6 Plus 128GB with iOS8.1.3 (with 15000 photos inside several years go), I notice that when using the Photos native app in the “Year view” (yearly mosaic view), if I scroll up or down slightly fast, the scrolling that you get has a little “stuttering” or “jerking” effect, so the UI is not perfectly smooth in this view inside Photos native app.
Have you noticed it in your own iPhone's with iOS8.1.3. and also having a huge size photo callery as I have (>10000 photos spread in several years)? (I think that is it very important, because if you have not a huge photo gallery, probably you will not see the “stuttering” or “jerking” effect that I am describing).
I think this is a bug which impacts iOS User eXperience, which needs to be fixed.
Thanks by your feedback!

Hi Guys!
Any experience to share with us, please?
Thanks!

IOS Photos app bug

I didn't know where to submit this to apple, so hopefully someone reads it.
Since about 2 iOS updates ago, I've noticed a bug in the regular Photos app. When switching back to Albums view after looking at Places, the list of albums will start at the very top of the screen (behind the clock, and app controls) making it impossible to click on the Camera Roll.
You have to go to the App Switched and kill the photos app to get it to work properly again.

Ah, now I see it's a well known problem...
It's been happening since 4.3, have they missed it in the last couple releases?

IOS photo app vs iPhoto, keywords, smart albums, face detection?

greetings,
i have some questions about iOS photos app in comparison to iPhoto (in 10.8). i've done a little searching on the web and in the forum, but didn't see this covered...
i always sync my iPhone to my mac, copy/import my photos to iPhoto, and use iPhoto to organize my photos. in iPhoto, i tag photos (keywords) and use "smart albums" to access all my photos based upon the keyword tags. face detection in iPhoto is GREAT!.   i have all my friends faces named and finding them by "people" grouping is fantastic. the down side to all of this is that i have everything working great on my mac, but usually i'm using the photos app in the iPhone to show pics to my friends since that is what i have with me. i'm not sure if this information in iPhoto ever gets synced back to my iPhone.
1- does the iOS photos app have any of these features from iPhoto?
     in other words, can i tag photos, lable the faces of friends, set up smart albums in iOS photos? if so, please point me to some info. i haven't seen an obvious way to do any of this.
2- can i sync what i do in iPhoto back to my iPhone?
     in other words, can i get the tags, peoples' names on their faces, and smart albums copied from iPhotos back to my iPhone? is there some setting or command in iPhoto, or somewhere else?
3- i just turned on photostream. can/does this iPhoto data transfer via photostream to the iPhone?
i have an iPhone 4.
i am just about ready to upgrade from iOS 5 to iOS 6. so if any of these features are specific to iOS 6, please let me know.
i'd appreciate it if you could mention if there is anything special about iOS in the iPad, because a friend has asked me how she can do in her iPad (iOS 6), what i do with iPhoto in my mac.
thank you for any suggestions or advice.

You're best bet would be to do your own comparison: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/iphoto/id497786065?mt=8

IOS 5 Photos.app bug?

I've been actively using the share button in photos.app to post pictures to Twitter for months now. I occasionally crop my pictures before tweeting them, and today I finally realized what's happening after (rather embarrassingly) tweeting a photo that included a combination for my locker at my school. Everytime I tweet a photo from the share button, any editing is removed and the original, unaltered photo is tweeted. I've searched a lot of forums and can't find anyone else that's experiencing this. I am running iOS 5.0.1 on an iPad 2, and am just looking to see if this is a problem for anyone else or if there's a way to avoid this, outside of taking a screenshot of the edited photo and tweeting that.

I'm running iOS 6 on my ipad and when I upload cropped photos to EBay they revert back to the original. Any idea why?

Photos app bug resurrects long-removed photos (related to PNG alpha)

Wanted to report/discuss a possible privacy concern and image glitch, and understand it better for submission to Apple's feedback page: the iPad (and maybe iPhone) Photos app will consitently resurrect long-deleted photos in your Camera Roll, under certain circumstances. These are long-removed photos (as in removed many months ago, prior to the iOS 5 update), and possibly only the reduced-size thumbnail versions.
Note: as near as I can tell, the deleted photos were NOT originally from the camera roll! That's where they resurface, but I believe they are photos from other albums, maybe once which used to by synched to iPad but which I no longer synch. So "removed" might mean deleted or it might mean "no longer synched to iPad"... the images are so old I can't recall.
So the bug, I'm guessing, it two-fold:
1) The Photos app (and/or iPhoto during wired synch?) is not fully removing photos (or at least, their thumbs). They're no longer visible in Photos app, but are being retained somewhere on the device.
2) A glitch in the Photos camera roll PNG handling (which I think may be new with iOS 5) causes those old images ro re-surface when you add a PNG to the camera roll. (The old photos were JPEG, but the image that triggers the bug must be a PNG with alpha channel)
I have seen this on both an iPad 1 and iPad 2, running iOS 5.
Here's how to reproduce it:
1) Synch some photos to your iPad, then deselect them for synching and re-synch (so they're not there any more). Also, add some photos or screenshots to the camera roll and then delete them. I say to do both because I'm not 100% where the old photos come from, and I'm hoping this covers all bases! Actually, most people have already done these things in the past, and can probably skip this step.
2) Generate a transparent PNG using the art app Procreate (and probably any app that saves PNGs to the camera roll with alpha channel). All you have to do is scribble somethign into a blank Procreate canvas, then export it to your photo album. There is no need to do anything special to get an alpha channel or PNG format: you always get that. (Unless you used the Fill command to completely cover the canvas.) Now in the camera roll there should be your scribble on a transparent background. You can email it to yourself and see that clearly in Photoshop or Preview.
3) Here's the glitch: look at your camera roll (thumbnails view) and you'll see that the alpha-transparent background of the image has become one of your old removed photos! Tap it to enlarge and the alpha becomes black (which is fine, although it may seem odd if you intended to paint onto the default white canvas). But for just a moment, before you see the black, you will get a full-size glimpse of the old photo. (Or, maybe, an enlargement of the thumbnail?)
4) If you keep saving more alpha PNGs, you'll keep seeing more and different old photos coming back to life in the alpha regions of the thumbnails (and, briefly, at full size).
5) If you delete all those PNGs and then save some new ones, you'll see the same sequence of old photos reappear again.
Needed fix: removed phtos/thumbnails should be properly purged, and alpha PNGs should show simply black (or some default background) at all times.

Ok, I replicated it and I don't like it! I didn't use the one you marked cause I couldn't call it up properly but I did Bing
transparent gifs and loaded up 3, one was totally invisible in the thumbnail and I could clearly see one of my pics perfectly in the thumbnail but when I brought it to page the gif filled the frame.
I have no idea where the pic came from, I mean I recognize it but from where in the album I have no idea.
Oh yeah, I was wrong about the first pic coming to page, it wasn't the same image but a different one...and I have no idea how the one that came up, (what i thought was the underlying pic) did, or how it got there or even from where.
This is some weird stuff though not as weird as that silly *** movie, what a load of tripe; I should have just spent my
time on this, it's infinitely more enjoyable!
Ok, here's the consensus from my layman iPad view:
What happened now and most probably before was a 'transparent gif' or a partially transparent gif like the one I spoke of first that I could see the edge of or the outer perimeter of, the underlining image with the gif taking up say 3/4 of the thumbnail; this it what it was.
This is totally apparent to me now because of your having me import a totally transparent gif which was invisible over my pic, thus the freaky part I didn't like...keying the thumbnail with one thing and ending up with something totally different when brought to page.
Still doesn't explain where this silly iPad is grabbing these pics from?
But here's something funny; my camera roll shows say 9,200 pics but my, 'iMy System' app say I have like 11,300 which I always thought was a fluke, that it was just reading wrong but maybe it's seeing something we're not. What if all those pics we're deleting to save space or just generally culling have never left the system? Maybe that goofy app is really reading the true count!
Those others up above us here who mentioned privacy concerns.. this could be whats going on, there's a ghost
in the machine and it be our old pics and god knows what else floating around in that iPads memory.
Ok, I'm crazy tired and I have to wrap this up. Least now we know how to replicate this but on the other hand I think we opened up an even bigger can of worms... the mystery of where all those images are hiding in our iPads?
I haven't hardwired to a computer since I upgraded to ios5 so whatever's going on here, leastwise for me is iPad
based and can't be blamed for synching issues like you discuss up above unless what I'm grabbing here is old stuff
reimported back into my pad from the mainframe when I was backed up for the ios5 upgrade?
Oh well, let me know what you think. Please do forgive my not getting back to you sooner on account of the movie
but you already know I regret choosing that over this! Hope you had a good night and thanks...

IOS5 Photos app bug

So I was browsing the web and decided to download a pic (Save to camera roll), when I opened the Photos app to check the pic, the app went crazy, buttons in the app changed places and some even disappeared, new pics save as a white pic and older photos became incredibly foggy/pixelled. I have tried rebooting and hasnt worked, something just went wrong and this huge bug was created. Ideas?
The device is an iPod Touch 4G, although that doesnt seem to matter since the problem clearly is on the software side. iOS 5 sounded cool but really, is the most buggy update ever :/

Mine was fixed following the direction on this thread.

Rev 3 photo app bugs/issues

Rev 3 photo app has unwanted changes/bugs:
Photos won't orient with earphone jack in up position as they did before, sometimes this orientation is best for viewing the LCD screen in certain situations.
When shuffle-displaying photos from a folder, if it happens to hit the last photo in the folder it stops and goes back to folder view instead of randomly selecting another photo. This would be a new bug since it seemingly used to end only after going through all photos in a folder.
When in shuffle, if you tap a photo to stop the shuffle you no longer get the play button, just forward and back buttons. You have to go back to the folder view to regain the play button.
These changes are not epic fails, but they are annoying. Why was it necessary to change this app at all? There should be settings options to use the previous features.

sometimes apple do change things inexplicably, not always for the better.
you should report bugs here
http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipodtouch.html
BUT i'm not sure these things are bugs, furthermore i suspect it is your ipod rather than a general problem.
i am assuming you mean the 3rd Generation when you refer to 'rev 3'
1) if i've understood you correctly, then my photos orient fine.
2) granted i don't use it very often, but i haven't noticed the problem with the shuffle function either - have done a quick test and it seems to work fine
3) however, the play button isn't there when i tap the screen. this is probably one of those inexplicable changes.
i suggest you work through the troubleshooting steps to see if you can get your photos to work properly. a restore may be required. http://www.apple.com/support/ipodtouch/assistant/ipodtouch/index.html

Photos app only downloads pictures in "moments" view

I have "upgraded" to the Photos app on all my devices (ipad, macbook air and iphone). After a few issues (pictures were not uploading from the macbook air) it all seems to work except on the ipad. There I only see gray rectangles where I should see pictures unless I open them in "moments" view. (ie in "collections" or "years") nothing downloads to the device. On the iphone, which uses the same settings (ie "optimise ipad storage"); all was downloaded. I have 11 GB free on the ipad.
any idea how to get all the reduced size images to download to the ipad?
thanks.

I was able to get my Journals working again by syncing all photos included in those Journals back from my Mac to the iPad. However, this has resulted in my iPad being loaded with extraneous photos (not included in the iPhoto Journal) wasting space on my iPad. I've posted a separate thread looking for a soution to that issue.

In iOS Photos app, how do I get photo to go to a different album?

In Photos on an iPad4, I want to move some photos from one album to another or from PhotoStream or Camera Roll to an album. I recall the process being...
1. Select an album. Press Edit. Select the pictures you want to move. Click Add to... Choose whether to Add to existing album OR Add to a New album. I choose Existing album and up pops a header saying Add to Album with my chosen number of photos below and the available albums.
WHAT NEXT? I believe I used to be able to simply tap on the target album and in would go the selected photos. Now, I have a Cancel button in the upper right. No other buttons and no combination of touches, taps, holds, seems to have any effect on anything...
Is this a bug in a latest release of iOS?
Thanks

1. Tap Edit on top right
2. Select photo for new Folder
3. Tap Add To...
4. Give folder a name

IPhone 5s lockscreen / photo app bug

I have noticed a reproducible bug that occurs on the lockscreen of my iphone 5s running ios 7.0.2. Here is a picture of the bug occuring on my lockscreen. It occurs as follows:
I wake the phone up to the lockscreen,
Next, I slide the camera icon up and press the camera roll square in the bottom left corner of the camera app,
Then, while still in the camera roll section of the camera app, I put the phone back to sleep,
The next time i wake my phone up from sleep I see this lockscreen.
Has anyone else experienced this as well? I want to make sure apple is aware so they can fix it in a software update.

I found a way to reverse to the keyboard with the normal size thanks to the post of Skemez1 above.
The bug is produced when you activate the camera from the lock screen and that you take a picture in landscape mode. Therefore when the keyboard appears zoomed in the lock screen, do this in order to get back to the normal size:
- activate again the camera from the lock screen,
- put the phone in portrait mode. You might have to first swerve to landscape, but do end with portrait.
- press the sleep button
It worked for me. The bug is still there, but at least I know how to get back to the normal keyboard.
This means that actually you should routinely avoid to press the sleep button when your camera is in landscape.
Hope it works for you.

IOS 6 App Store Crashing when trying to view Purchased apps

i up graded my ipod touch 4th gen to IOS 6 and it won't let me see my apps in the app store and it won't enable my airplay?!?!?!

I'm having the same issue with my iPod Touch 4. The upgrade process to iOS 6 went pretty smoothly, but when viewing my purchase history, the app thinks for about 30 seconds then crashes back to the home screen. My iPad 3 takes about 30 seconds, but allows me to view my purchase history.
I probably have somewhere between 250-300 apps in my history.
I didn't have this problem before the upgrade to iOS 6. Is my iPod Touch 4 just not powerful enough anymore?
Maybe Apple's telling us, "Hey, if you want to easily view and download your purchased apps, do I have a deal for you. Let me show you this: the new iPod Touch 5 for only $299. It'll solve all of your problems. Whadda say, pal?"

Why is the new iOS 8 photo app slow handling photo raw files

I Have been importing my photos to ipad using the camera kit since the first iPad was released.
Originally I only imported JPEG, however as my photographic interest grew I switched to photo raw.
I have since being importing and edit pentax PEF photo raw files through the various versions of iOS, however since this new version the experience of editing and viewing my photos is slow, and unpleasant.
Choose a photo to view, and a blurry picture appears, and a second or 3 and the blurry images clears and I can view my photo, now swipe left to the next picture and the photos move as they should then stick half of the first picture is shown and half of the second, wait 2 / 3 seconds and the second picture is revealed, blurry, and wait another second or to and it clears. It carries on in this fashion, and it turns a pleasant experience, into a frustrating one.
on previous versions of iOS there would be a small pause as images loaded, but it was always smooth to move from picture to picture.
i Have tried switching to RAW+ hoping that only the attached JPEG would be imported. This did not appear to work with the whole image being imported.
please anyone how can I get back to the iOS photo app that worked better with raw photo files?

Briansyddal - you might be able to manage your phone without a PC, but many of us can't, especially those of us with large iTunes libraries. How do you propose I manage my 250GB of music using only a phone? Maybe I could go out and buy 10 iPhones and spread my library out among them!
Catz537 - I have the same problem as you and I've spent hours on the web trying to find a solution to it. It was a problem with iOS 7 and 8.1.1 doesn't fix it. The the only advice from Apple is completely useless because it requires you, effectively, to delete and recreate your iTunes library and lose all your metadata, album art, notes etc and there's also no guarantee it will work. I wish I could be more help (even more - I wish Apple could be more help) - I updated to 8.1.1 at 1400 today. At 2200 I'm still "waiting for changes to be applied" for a measly 16GB of music transfer.

Airplay only works with Photos App after upgrade to latest ios 6.1.3

I have upgraded both my iphone4s and ipad2 to ios 6.1.3 and now I dont see the Airplay icon on the Youtube App, Jasmine App, McTube App, Safari etc.
The only place I see the Airplay icon is when browsing photos and videos using the native ios photos app.
I have tried rebooting my iDevices, restarted my xbmc server, but to no affect. Why does it only show up in the native photos App??
Please help
Thanks

Still works fine for me, have you restarted your Apple TV and wifi router?

Sort order changes from ios photos to iphoto

My photos in an album in the the ios Photo app are in a particular order. When accessed fro iPhoto, the order is completely different. How can I mantain the original order?

I also have have the same issue and have been on the phone with Apple Care....not much help I'm afraid although I do believe something is broken and requires a fix. Here is what I have found (all software up to date and latest OS BTW)....I have sorted all my pictures by Date, if I want to add a straggler I just alter the original date and all is well within the event. I then "batch change" the event to the tile and event name. So the pictures in the event are named " Holiday 2012 1-xxx. Again, all is well in iPhoto but when sent to an iPad or Apple TV the sort is as siwilson mentioned above. I just discovered a temp work around for events with less than 1000 pictures, if I sort by Title I can get them to show correctly on the ATV and iPad. Now what was/is interesting is somethimes they would sort correct and sometimes not. It turns out that if you sort the event by Title and quit iPhoto and reopen it....it has reverted back to sort by Date. It does that everytime. So what I do is turn home sharing off in iTunes (forces it to look at the photos again), open an iPhoto event and sort by Title. Then I turn home sharing on in iTunes (leaving iPhoto open) and sync my iPad. If I want ot stream photos to my ATV I must leave iPhoto open so the sort remains as I set it. If I want to retain the correct sort this is what I need to do each time. So this is a bandage for me until they fix things. One final about pictures over 1000.....it sorts them as mentioned above with another twist, numbering goes 0001, 1000, 1001, 1002 etc. @#$% why can't they just sort the way iPhoto presents them?

IOS photo edits not preserved when I upload to Revel

I imported my SD card into my iPad. Since I was not connected to the Internet, I did not immediately upload my pictures to Revel. I edited them (crop, exposure, etc.) using the built in iOS tools. They looked great. However, when I imported them into Revel all my edits were gone.
Can't Revel preserve the iOS edits?
I am using the latest iOS release and the Revel 2.0.

You are correct that the app works this way. This is part of the design decision for Revel to always preserve your original photo, despite edits and changes that applied on top of the original.
If you wish to work around this and import the edit, then in the iOS Photos app, view the photo you want to import into Revel. Long press the image until ‘Copy’ is displayed, and select that. Switch over to Revel, and tap ‘Add.’ At the bottom of the grid of images, you’ll see “Clipboard” and the edited version of the image. Import this, and you will have iOS-edited image in Revel. After importing this way, Revel will not be able to revert this image to its original form.
