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!

I am using iPad OS18. The photos are in an album of their own as well as saved as a memory slideshow. Before I upgraded to OS18 I was able to display the photos in a magazine style…one full photo at a time. I was also able to change the speed of the slides by using the slider from “rabbit to turtle”, and add my own music from my iTunes library. Now with the update my photos are grouped/cropped automatically, it plays too fast and I can’t use my iTunes library. The links you provided were for the iPhone not iPad.

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
