As part of the iOS version 15, Apple has brought some
improvement to the Photos app, which includes a new “info” button that allows access
to a number of important things. These include being able to see the EXIF data of
a photo, a caption field for a photo, the location where the photo was taken,
and Look Up information available relevant to the photo.
With the Info button, you can also see which app the photo
was saved from, if it wasn’t directly taken from the camera. What’s more is
that the Photos app will also filter and organize all your photos based on where
they were saved from if you tap the “Saved from” location displayed in bold. For
instance, all the photos saved from web via Safari would appear in one place,
so you wouldn’t have to spend time scrolling through all your photos.
The feature also makes it easier to find photos saved from
different apps like WhatsApp or Messenger directly in the Photos app, without
having to look for them in the apps individually.
iOS 15 has been launched in its early beta stage and its
public beta is expected to be released next month. The official release date
will be revealed this fall.
