Like old screenshots of recipes from 4 years ago that I never made…still not going to. 🤣 ### 1/5 — Does not work at all. *2025-11-17* I gave the app full access to all of my photos and it fails to find literally any photos. I’ve only had my iPad for about 3 or 4 years now and there is no excuse for it to not be finding photos. Do not install. ### 5/5 — Perfect App *2025-10-16, version 1.0* Works exactly as intended ### 4/5 — Problem *2025-09-25* Great but, please add a button for erasing ### 4/5 — Very good but missing… *2025-06-11* This is a wonderful app to revisit the memories. I wish it offers the notification and ability to change the order of photos from old to new and vice versa. Thank you for creating this app! ### 4/5 — Solid! *2025-03-08* Pretty good! Wish photos didn’t auto rotate to horizontal and wish i could swipe through them too. Also maybe a daily push i can enable to review? Thanks! ### 3/5 — Lots of potential *2025-02-23* I like the widget and interface. A couple of suggestions to add are: 1. Save photos from messages to your photos. I see a lot of photos people have messaged me and don’t exist in my photo roll. Could you build a way to navigate to the photo (in the message app) so I could save it? Better yet, just build a way to save the photo directly from your app. 2. Improve the UI in the app. Use the swipe down to exit the photo back to your day view. Build a calendar to navigate to a specific month/day rather than just going forwards/backwards one day at a time. Thanks for building your app. Hope this feedback is helpful. ### 1/5 — PLEASE add these features! *2025-01-28* Please add the ability to choose photos to send to my Mac (so I can add photos my amazing photos account and my Google photos account easily ) Also, when I click on the horizontal photos the photo is on its side Please fix this and I will give you 5 stars. Thanks!!!! ### 2/5 — PLEASE add these features! *2025-01-18* Please add the ability to choose photos to send to my Mac (so I can add photos my amazing photos account and my Google photos account easily ) Also, when I click on the horizontal photos the photo is on its side Please fix this and I will give you 5 stars. Thanks!!!! ### 4/5 — Love it *2025-01-11* Wish I could have “open in photos” or “delete in photos” so that I could get rid of photos that were sent or saved I don’t want anymore ## Frequently asked questions about Photos On This Day ### What does Photos On This Day do?
