Are Photo Albums Scrapbook Good in Custody Cases

Learn how to better manage and access all the photos and screenshots on your iPhone via dedicated albums.

Your iPhone probably is loaded with hundreds or thousands of photos and screenshots that you've snapped over the years. From a business perspective, you might have photos and screen captures that you've taken for your organization, maybe for record keeping, inventory, documentation, or promotional or marketing purposes.

Though iOS tries to organize your photos based on date and other criteria, you're still faced with a huge array of images that you have to browse to find the ones you want. There has to be a better way. There is, through albums. You can organize your photos and screenshots into specific albums based on event, date, or other criteria. When you want to find a specific photo, simply look for it in its album.

To get started, open the Photos app on your iPhone. Tap the Albums icon on the bottom toolbar. At the Albums screen, tap the + icon in the upper-left corner. Tap the option for New Album (Figure A).

Type the name you wish to give this album and then tap Save. At the next screen, tap each photo you want to add to the album. To quickly select a range of contiguous photos, swipe your finger across the entire row and then swipe down through each row of photos. Notice that a checkmark appears on each photo you've swiped. When finished, tap Done. Your new album then appears in the My Albums screen (Figure B).

Continue this way until you've created albums for the photos you wish to organize. You can then view them all in the My Albums screen.

Next, you can rename an album, delete an album, and add or remove photos in an album. At the My Albums screen, tap the See All link. At the next screen, tap the Edit link in the upper-right. To change the name of an album, tap your finger in the existing name (Figure C). Revise it with the new name.
