Photos
Is there an easier way to move photos located in files to the photo albums I have made? They all go to recent album.

Hello buffylou1,
Are you talking about moving a picture file from the Files app to the Photos app on the device? Or are you talking about mobile a picture file from one folder in the Files app to another folder?
If you're just moving it within the Files app, when you touch and hold the item and select Move, you would just select whatever folder you want to move it directly into.

If you're talking about moving something from the Files app to the Photos app, then no there wouldn't be an easier way currently. When you move something to Photos it's just going to put it in the main "Recents" folder and then you would have to move it to whatever folder you want directly in the Photos app.
