Apple has launched iOS 18, featuring a substantial redesign of the Photos app, which aims to enhance user experience by simplifying navigation and organization. The new app layout introduces collections like Recent Days, People & Pets, and Trips, making it easier to locate specific images, although many users have expressed dissatisfaction with the changes, calling them unintuitive and buggy. In addition to the Photos app, iOS 18 also offers home screen customization options, a revamped Control Center, and new privacy features such as locking apps with Face ID or Touch ID. Meanwhile, Snapchat is implementing its most significant redesign in years, reducing its interface from five to three tabs to improve accessibility and content discovery. Dubbed “Simple Snapchat,” this update seeks to streamline user interactions with friends and creators while enhancing video consumption. As these platforms adapt their interfaces, user feedback on usability remains a critical consideration.
