iOS 4.3 photo app bug

Same here... extremely annoying.

I can confirm this bug on an iPhone 4 running iOS 4.3 (developer GM, but it's the same build as the release).

The funny thing is, the bug is quite simple to fix... UIScrollView (the view class that holds the table containing the list of albums) has a parameter called contentInset, which adds some extra space at the edges to fix this kind of problem. Someone forgot to set the contentInset for the top. Oops. Hopefully we'll get a 4.3.1 release soon that fixes this (and other little annoyances.)

same bug here on an iPhone 4 running iOS 4.3 😟

Killing the photos app from the App switcher will fix it. Double tap on the Home button, hold your finger down on the Photos app until an 'X' appears then select the X to delete it. Then re-launch the Photos app and voila.

I am having the same problem... glad to see I am not the only one out there.

That fix worked for me! Thanks...

I've been having the same problem. After exiting out of the app, it works fine, but eventually the bug comes back and I have to exit out again.

Same bug here.

Me too.

Yep. Painful, especially when using photo apps.

I have this too. Please correct this, Apple. Until then, the aformentioned workaround will suffice.

And just to clarify, it isn't an 'x' that appears when closing apps from the multitasking bar, it's a dash/hyphen '-'
So just double press the home button so that the multitasking bar comes up, then tap and hold the Photos app icon until the dash appears, and then tap the dash to close. Then press home to leave the multitasking bar and re-enter the Photos app. Then Albums will be back in its proper place and you can tap into it.
Just being very, very specific, for any newbies.

4.3.1 fixes this

Thank you for the tip, works fine. Lets hope it gets fixed!
