Unsurprisingly, while some users liked the update, others are still reluctant to approve the new app. But there was one very annoying aspect of the new Photos app that Apple is finally fixing with iOS 18.2.<\/p>\n<p><span id=\"more-977751\"\/><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-apple-changes-the-video-player-in-the-ios-18-photos-app\">Apple changes the video player in the iOS 18 Photos app<\/h2>\n<p>With the <a href=\"https:\/\/9to5mac.com\/2024\/11\/11\/ios-18-2-beta-3-heres-everything-new\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">third beta of iOS 18.2<\/a>, which was released to developers on Monday, Apple has made a small but important change to the Photos app\u2019s video player. In previous versions of iOS 18, videos are displayed with white borders around them and users have to tap the screen to watch them in full screen. Now videos are always played in full screen, just like in older versions of iOS.<\/p>\n<p>The new video scroll bar and playback controls are still there, but the white space around the videos is gone. Now tapping on the screen simply hides and shows the interface buttons as it used to before iOS 18.<\/p>\n<p>Personally, I was never a fan of the new video interface in the iOS 18 Photos app, so I\u2019m glad to see Apple changing it. Given that the company is reverting to the old design, it seems that more people were unhappy with this aspect of the Photos app.<\/p>\n<p>Since the very first beta of iOS 18.0 in June, Apple has made a lot of changes to the Photos app based on feedback from users and developers. The app is now entirely customizable and its internal navigation has been completely changed, which has caused some users to dislike the interface as they consider it too confusing.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignwide size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1000\" src=\"https:\/\/9to5mac.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2024\/11\/photos-app-ios-18.2-video-player.jpg?quality=82&amp;strip=all\" alt=\"iOS 18.2 Photos app video player\" class=\"wp-image-977759\" srcset=\"https:\/\/9to5mac.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2024\/11\/photos-app-ios-18.2-video-player.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/9to5mac.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2024\/11\/photos-app-ios-18.2-video-player.jpg?resize=155,78 155w, https:\/\/9to5mac.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2024\/11\/photos-app-ios-18.2-video-player.jpg?resize=655,328 655w, https:\/\/9to5mac.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2024\/11\/photos-app-ios-18.2-video-player.jpg?resize=768,384 768w, https:\/\/9to5mac.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2024\/11\/photos-app-ios-18.2-video-player.jpg?resize=1024,512 1024w, https:\/\/9to5mac.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2024\/11\/photos-app-ios-18.2-video-player.jpg?resize=1536,768 1536w, https:\/\/9to5mac.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2024\/11\/photos-app-ios-18.2-video-player.jpg?resize=350,175 350w, https:\/\/9to5mac.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2024\/11\/photos-app-ios-18.2-video-player.jpg?resize=140,70 140w, https:\/\/9to5mac.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2024\/11\/photos-app-ios-18.2-video-player.jpg?resize=1600,800 1600w, https:\/\/9to5mac.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2024\/11\/photos-app-ios-18.2-video-player.jpg?resize=290,145 290w, https:\/\/9to5mac.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2024\/11\/photos-app-ios-18.2-video-player.jpg?resize=150,75 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photos app in iOS 18.1 (left) and iOS 18.2 (right)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>During the development of iOS 18, some other more radical changes were also reversed \u2013 such as <a href=\"https:\/\/9to5mac.com\/2024\/08\/05\/ios-18-photos-app-changes\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">the carousel with highlights that was scrapped in iOS 18.0 beta 5<\/a>. At the end of the day, this whole story reminds me of when Apple tried \u2013 unsuccessfully \u2013 to introduce a major redesign to Safari and <a href=\"https:\/\/9to5mac.com\/2021\/08\/17\/ios-15-beta-6-redesigns-safari-yet-again-with-new-address-bar-on-top\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ended up bringing back the classic interface after many complaints<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s worth noting that iOS 18.2 will be released to the public in December.<\/p>\n<p>What are your thoughts on the new Photos app in iOS 18?
