What’s new
Version 1.6 · Updated October 15, 2026
This update is mostly about screen sizes: the grid turns with your iPhone, and the app is ready for iPhone Duo. Videos from iCloud no longer freeze, and there is a new place to tell me what you would like next. Highlights - The grid turns to landscape on iPhone, with more photos in each row. - On This Day is ready for iPhone Duo. - New Feature Requests board: suggest ideas and vote on others. - Photo Size lets you choose how large photos appear in the grid. (Pro) Grid - The grid now rotates to landscape on iPhone. - Wider screens show more columns, so photos keep about the same size in landscape, on iPad and on Mac. - The Column Count setting is now called Photo Size, and it shows a live preview of the grid. (Pro) - Photos in the grid stay sharp after you rotate, resize the window or change the photo size. iPhone Duo - The grid and fullscreen adjust when you fold, unfold or rotate your iPhone Duo. - On the closed iPhone Duo, the buttons sit in the bar at the side of the screen, and a photo fills the whole screen when you hide them. Fullscreen - The buttons at the top have a new look, with the actions grouped together. - Photos and Live Photos load at the full size of the window on iPad, Mac and the open iPhone Duo. Videos - Videos stored in iCloud start quickly and no longer freeze while they play. They stream at a smaller size; videos on your iPhone still play in full quality. - A spinner shows while a video waits for more data, so a short pause no longer looks like a frozen picture. Feature Requests - Settings › Support & Feedback has a new Feature Requests board. Suggest an idea or vote on what others have asked for. New requests appear after I have read them. Fixes & polish - Swiping between photos in fullscreen is smoother, and a day with lots of photos fills in faster. - When you swipe into another year in landscape, the year now shows, the same as in portrait. - The date picker now fits on the screen in landscape. - Photos from this year no longer appear when Include Current Year is off and the time zone auto-fix is on. (Pro) - An older video can no longer replace the one you are watching. - The video loading spinner no longer disappears too early when you swipe quickly.
