Can’t change the playback speed or display pictures from Photo app post update

I had created a great slideshow of a recent trip, then I upgraded to ios18. Now I can’t display the photos as I want, can’t change the playback speed or add my own music from itunes. This is HORRIBLE!

That is exactly the issue I’m having. I did a wonderful slideshow presentation of my grandson and future bride to play at the rehearsal dinner. I had the slides perfectly in order. I had some depicting Bible verses. And I had the music perfectly selected for the slideshow. When I went to play it, it cropped whatever ones it wanted to crop it stacked whatever ones that wanted to stack and my music was no longer even accessible. Whoever designed this had a serious deficit and understanding the needs of the consumer. If they are relying on AI to decide what I want to show and when and how I am more than willing to opt out.

Just found that on a Mac you can create a slideshow that is not a memory.

Create a slideshow project

There is a lot more control and you can adjust duration.

The resulting slideshow does not appear in memories but in a new "Projets" category.

You can export the slideshow as a movie.

So far I have not found the same thing on the Iphone or Ipad but the exported file can be played on those.

It is far from perfect because it generate a separate file.

I would have prefered rich slideshow feature in the Photo app that work on all Apple devices.


Don't forget to submit feature request to bring back more Slideshow/Memories control on IOS
