What's New in Space Photos

1.1.1

June 2, 2026

• Fixed an issue on iOS 26 where photos would not pan until the drag gesture ended. • Added mouse-wheel zooming on macOS while holding the Option key. • Added clip previews in the Saved Clips view via the new magnification button in each clip row. Previous updates: • Every photo now includes a scissors button in the upper-left corner. Tap it to open the photo in a zoom and pan view, then tap Add Clip to save a clipping of the current zoomed and positioned area. • Saved clippings can be accessed from the new Saved Clips section at the top of the main view whenever clips are available. • In Saved Clips, you can reorder clippings and generate a collage using the layout selected in the Options view. • Tap the Options button in the upper-right corner of the main view to choose a collage layout. Two new layouts, Vertical Row and Rectangular, have been added alongside the existing Square and Horizontal Row layouts. • Sharing is now entirely file-based, and shared files use descriptive filenames instead of generic names. • When the server is slow, you can now view already-downloaded images and stop the rest from downloading. A progress bar shows how many of the 10 images have loaded.
