I DONT WANT MAC PHOTOS LIBRARY BE SHOWN IN SUMMARIZED WAY

I installed Catalina and saw that when I view my photos in 'days', the photos are shown in a summarized way, they just reduced 'similar' photos whatsoever when I want to see every photo in each days just like how my previous photo library should be. On https://support.apple.com/en-hk/guide/photos/pht5156cc968/mac they say you can ''set whether photos are shown in a “summarised” view'' but there's no buttons for that at all. HOW?? THIS IS BOTHERING AND SO INCONVENIENT PLEASE HELP.

MacBook Air 13", macOS 10.15

There are two things you can do to see a full day of photos, without the photos being cropped and tiled, with titles below the thumbnails, without photos omitted:

  • Either navigate to the Day in Days View, then select a photo and click the All Photos tab. You will now be seeing exactly this Day in All Photos.
  • Or use the search field and search for the date you want. Then you can view the moment like in Photos 4.0 on Mojave. When the Moment opens, click "Show more" and the photos will be shown like in All Photos. See: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-250001787. I am using the date format "Month day year" to search for the Moment, for example "September 10, 2019". Writing the full name of the month is safer to get date results in Photos. using the search has the advantage, that Photos will show a details section with the people and the places map below the moment.


Since the update to macOS 10.15.2 we can see again the titles below the photos in All Photos. We have just to enable "View > Metadata > Titles". And to see the photos without cropping click the button to the right of the traffic light:
