Changes to Photos. Where did Camera Roll and Photo Stream albums go?

Question

In iOS 7, the Photos app has 2 default folders for pics.

• Camera Roll
• My Photo Stream

In iOS 8, the default folders is now:

• Recently Added
• Recently Deleted

How do you manage what's on Photo Stream and what's on your device?

Answer 1

See...

• iCloud, meet Photos: What's changing for your images in iOS 8
• How to Find Your Photos in iOS 8 (And Where Is Camera Roll?)
• iOS 8, thoroughly reviewed:Camera & Photos

extract...

while Camera Roll is gone, its photos are not. They've simply moved over to a different location in the Photos app: Collections. Collections, which organizes all of your photos by date and location, is Apple's attempt at making photos more organized and searchable.

It appears that PhotoStream has gone & only the last 30 days will be stored by default.

Answer 2

to delete the pics from just your photostream, follow these steps....it works for me....lame though.....i wish they would give you the option to just have a friggin "camera roll" and "photostream"....

• Take a photo with one iDevice
• Check to see it in the Recently Added on both iDevices
• Delete it on one device (goes to Recently Deleted on that device)
• Check Recently Added on the other device to see if it is gone
• Check Recently Deleted on the other device to make sure it doesn't show up there
• Restore the deleted photo from the Recently Deleted folder so it shows back up in Recently Added
• Check the other device to make sure it doesn't reappear in that device's Recently Added

boom.... :)
