Viewing Photos and Videos

Photos lets you view photos synced from your computer’s photo application, imported from a digital camera or iPhone, or saved from an email message or webpage.

Photos organizes collections by Albums, Events, Faces, and Places. Places uses the location information encoded in photos, but not all photos may have this information—it requires a camera that supports geotagging. Events and Faces must first be configured in iPhoto or Aperture on a Mac, then synced to iPad.

View photos:

1In Photos, tap Photo, Albums, Events, Faces, or Places.

To open a collection, tap it. Or, pinch the collection to spread out a preview of the photos it contains, then let go to open it. Photos are sorted by creation date.

When you’re viewing Places, tap a pin on the map to display the location, then pinch to zoom and show all photos taken at this location.

2Tap a thumbnail to view a photo in full screen. You can also pinch to zoom in on the photo.
