Join Garrick Chow for an in-depth discussion in this video Work with Memories, part of iOS 10: iPhone and iPad Essential Training.
- [Instructor] Photos in iOS 10 includes a new feature called Memories, which automatically compiles the photos and videos stored on your device into short movies or slideshows. Here, in the Memories tab, you'll find a selection of compilations Photos has put together. If you have a lot of photos on your device, you'll see a different memory compilation almost every time you pop in here. To view any one of these, just tap it. That takes you to the page for this Memories collection where you can view a summary of the photos here, or tap Show All to see all of the photos that have been collected here.
And you can tap and view photos as normal to look through them, but arguably, the coolest part of Memories is the automatic video slideshow it can generate from the photos, which you'll find here at the very top of the screen. Just tap that to view your video. (contemplative instrumental music) So this can be a really fun way to view and share your photos, and you do have some control over the length and mood of the slideshow.
Down here, you can choose different music and adjust the length of the slideshow. For example, maybe I'll choose Chill for the music. And let's make this a little shorter by choosing the Short length, and now, the video looks and sounds like this. (slow instrumental music) Notice that also changed the style in which the photos were presented.
So you'll definitely want to take some time experimenting with the different lengths and moods to get the video just the way you like. And once I'm happy with this, I can go back to the main page for this memory, scroll all the way down, and here, I'll tap Add to Favorite Memories. So now, if I switch over to the Album view, notice we now have an Album called Favorite Memories. And from here, I'll be able to find and view the Memories I save. All right, so that's how to work with and customize the Memories that Photos automatically generates, but you can also create a memory video completely from scratch.
Start here in Albums and tap the plus button to create an Album. Give it a name. Maybe I want to create a slideshow of my trips to Utah. I'll tap Save. So basically, this is how you create any Album in Photos. You create a new Album, you name it, and you start adding photos to it. So you can browse for the Photos through Albums or through the Photos tab. And I'll start looking for photos that I want to add. I'll just a couple here that aren't actually in Utah just so we have some more photos to work with, and then I'll tap Done.
So now, I have an Album called Utah, and if I select it, I can browse the photos from here, but when you're inside an Album, you can also tap the date range here at the top. That takes you to what's basically the memory page for this Album. And sure enough, right at the top here, we have a video. (upbeat instrumental music) Clearly, not Utah, but you get the idea, and you can customize this like any other video memory.
So I could choose a different song, and I can change the length. (upbeat, fast techno music) So that's definitely a different mood. But again, once I'm happy with this, I can come back out to the main page, scroll down, and tap Add to Memories.
And now, I'll be able to find that in the Memories tab anytime I want to watch it. That's it right there at the top. Now, if I want this to show up in the Favorite Memories Album, as well, I can scroll all the way down to the bottom of its page here, and again, tap Add to Favorite Memories. So now, we'll see it when I come back out to Albums here under Favorite Memories. All right, so that's the new Memories feature of iOS 10. It's a quick and easy way to create dynamic and fun slideshows with the photos stored on your device.
