[iOS] What's with the photos app?

I thought I was having a stroke when trying to manage my albums

 

Might be the single worst update to a major iPhone app. It’s awful

 

i took a photo of one of the trees in my backyard yesterday b/c the fall color is spectacular and the photo app correctly identified it as a chinese pistache in the notes. crazy that it not only tags it as a tree, but knows what kind.

but yeah, im not liking the update.

 

Bunch of shitstains.

 

A bit off-topic, but I planted a chinese pistache about 5 years ago to replace a broken bradford pear. It's still only about 15 feet tall, but the colors haven't been that great so far. Some say it depends on whether you have a male or female tree. I've seen some crazy awesome colors out of pistaches around the area, though. Added plus is they're heat/drought tolerant and disease resistant. You should post pics of yours once you get your sorry phone working!

 

mine is almost 7 years old and its just now getting to 18'-20'. it was about 8' when planted in 2018. it seemed to grow pretty slow the first 5 years or so and is really shooting up the last couple years. i love the tree b/c its low maintenance, great fall color and shade. as for colors, ive heard it can be a crap-shoot. some trees are more colorful than others.

mine is a male and doesnt produce those annoying berries. its got great fall color this is not mine, but its the type of color im getting. i also planted a autumn blaze maple a couple years ago. its been struggling in the texas summer and it loses most of its leaves by fall, but the ones that survived are fire-engine red.

 

Yeah, mine is a female, but they've been known to flip genders from what I understand. Not sure if that's true. I was going to get an Autumn Blaze, too, but the more I read, the more I kept hearing it wasn't the best for North Texas area. There's a tree farm/shop up in Fort Worth called Metro Maples that has a variety that they have a patent on. It's called the Fire Dragon shantung maple This variety is built for Texas heat from what I understand, and if you get lucky, the colors are spectacular. But like all colorful trees, you may need a lot of luck to see the most spectacular colors. I almost bought it instead of the pistache, but they were out of stock when I went looking. Anyhoo... good luck with the tree.

 

i don't notice any of this on my iVen. is there an update i didn't know about?

 

I hear everyone’s nudes in the hidden folder was deleted.

 

yeah, im in austin and the autumn blaze is at the very southern end of its range and with things getting hotter it might not be viable here anymore. i would think you would be better off in north texas with them though. i know they do well in oklahoma.

do you fertilize your trees? i think i remember reading that can help fall colors pop more?

i had planted a shantung maple at the same time i planted the pistache. it died last year though. the extreme heat combined with extreme freezes has been rough on my newish trees. i also dont think i was watering it enough. it was also in full sun. i think the maples need to be in a shady spot later in the day. its a great tree though. mine had these cool red/yellow leaves.

 

What exactly is the issue?
