Hello, I recently upgraded my iPad from iOS 13 to iOS 13 and noticed that I don’t how to jump to the end of an album anymore, since the bottom bar where I can tap on the Album icon to do that doesn’t seem to exist anymore. Is it still possible to do this in the new version?
iPad Pro, iPadOS 14
Hello pantaipong,
We would like to help you with the Photos app. Simply tap the bottom of the screen to return to the bottom of the album.
Cheers!

Ah, it’s not jump to the bottom of a web browser, but merely the Photos app. My iPhone is still using iOS 13 and it has this function. I can click on the Albums button on on the lower bar and it will jump me to the bottom of the album instantly.
But this function exists in both platform in ios 13 though? It’s why I asked the question in the first place since I use it constantly on an ios 13 iPad and noticed its missing immediately after I updated it to ios 14. Screenshot of ios 13 Photos app on ipad are so rare but I managed to find one.
Whilst there is not an explicit gesture to “jump” to the bottom of the page, you can easily and quickly scroll down through a long page in most Apps… including Photos.
As soon as you swipe upwards (to scroll down), a narrow scroll-bar appears at the extreme right-edge of the screen. Touch-and-hold the bar - and the bar will thicken; without lifting your finger, drag the scroll-bar downwards to rapidly scroll down the page. Likewise, dragging upwards scrolls back up the page. The presence of the scroll-bar is often (and easily) missed.
The visual length of the scroll-bar provides a relative indication of how much of the extended page is visible on-screen. The longer the page, the shorter the scroll-bar. The position of the scroll-bar in relation to the edge indicates your position in the page.
Try this out on this page - and the scroll-bar will be about a half of the length of the right-hand edge of the screen. At time of writing this reply, this indicates that you can see about a half of the extended page on the screen. As more replies are added here, the page gets longer - and the scroll-bar proportionally shorter.
I hope this insight proves to be helpful in effectively navigating pages on your iPad.
Yeah I have been using the scroll bar as a substitute while waiting for an answer, but it kinda disrupts my workflow since I have to tap and hold on the top of the screen precisely where the scrolling bar is.
Does this mean the old way of instantly jump to the bottom doesn’t exist anymore?
And therein lies your fundamental problem…
iOS for iPhone and iPadOS for iPad, although closely related, significantly differ in implementation of their UI (User Interface). UI gestures are “optimised” for the platform upon which the OS is running.
Not all functions/gestures are available on both platforms - indeed, some (including some embedded Apps) are only seen on one or other platform, not both.
Thanks for the reply Sean! But there aren’t any bottom, or rather there is, but I either just end up clicking on a pictures or not thing happen.
There isn’t a gesture to return to the bottom of the page. In fact, I don’t recall any versions of iOS/iPadOS ever having such a feature.
