Tapping a photo cluster zooms in three clear steps: pan in, all the way, fan photos out (Apple spiderfier style). RADIUS SEARCH — RECALL THE PAST What did you do at this spot before? Pulslab searches your Apple Photos and Apple Health archive for photos AND workout routes inside a cyan search circle (100 m – 20 km). Filter by year, "hide today", workout list with tap-to-detail.
