Moments and the Gallery

Choosing a Moment

Tap the calendar at the top left to see your Moments, newest first, and pick one. The ‹ and › arrows beside the date move to the earlier and the later Moment. Tap All Moments to see the whole library at once (a big library takes a few seconds; the card says so); picking a Moment turns it off again. When you leave the Gallery for another surface and come back, it is where you left it, filter and all.

The Moment header

Beside the date are two small icons. The tag opens Tag the Moment, where you say who is in the photos, what the event was and where it happened. The face opens Name the Faces, which shows every face Livo found in the Moment so you can name them. See Tag the Moment and Naming the faces. The Moment’s menu also offers Make a Memory of these.

Marked photos

Swipe a photo up to mark it (a thumbs up). The N Marked pill shows how many marked photos the library has; tap it to see only them. Marked photos are the set a new Memory is made from; see Making a Memory.

Selecting photos

Tap a photo to select it; keep dragging to select more. A row appears under the header: Select All, Clear, + Event (put the selection in an event), Make a Memory and Share. The bar at the bottom offers Tag (people, places and tags on all of them at once), Info (one photo), Delete (which asks first and moves the photos to the Trash), and … for the rest: Rotate, Set Date, Stitch for videos, Find Moment, and the Curator tools when Curator is on.

Opening a photo

Tap a selected photo, or double-tap any photo, to see it full screen. Swipe between photos, pinch to zoom, pull down to close. A LIVE pill plays a Live Photo. The buttons under a photo include Info, Rotate, Edit Photo and, on a video, Edit Segments (Livo Plus); see Editing photos and videos. The tag icon at the top opens the Details strip for that one photo. If the full-size picture cannot be shown, the caption under it says why; see When something looks wrong.

The badges on a photo

A small mark in the corner tells you what a photo is: video, LIVE, stitched, used in a Memory, or Aa when Livo has read text on it. Curator adds marks for a scanned print and a photo in a Bucket.
