Dear Axel.


Thank you very much for your reply but unfortunatelly it doesn´t work for me. When I just to do it all selected and moved photos are still in Main folder mean main Library or All photos album. I think that these are not folders as I know it and normaly use it on my old Android device, but just Albums whichs behavior is like a tag for photos. Am I right or no?

Based on my reply is there any reason to do it as I described?


Thanks a lot.

Currently, you can move your selected photos from one folder to the other. You can also create a NEW ALBUM to place selected photos in.

Open Photos ➔ Select Photo(s) ➔ Share (Bottom Left icon) ➔ Add to Album ➔ You will see a NEW ALBUM ➔ Tap on the label New Album and change the name ➔ Tap on the Album : This will move the selected photo(s) into that New Album.
