In response to user backlash over the Photos app redesign in iOS 18, Apple announced at WWDC 25 that it will revert to a tabbed interface in iOS 26. The changes include separate tabs for Library and Collections, enhancing photo navigation. Users can now organize photos more easily, as the Library tab allows scrolling through recent photos. The update also enables 2D photos to be converted into 3D spatial photos, complementing the features inspired by Apple's Vision Pro headset. Apple continues to enhance usability by refining the Camera app for better accessibility of camera modes and settings.
Photos now features separate tabs for Library and for Collections, making it easier to navigate through the interface, highlighting Apple's responsiveness to user feedback.
Many of you missed using tabs in the Photos app. This change signifies Apple's acknowledgment of user preferences and their commitment to improving user experience.
