![]() We almost exclusively share through Apple's shared albums. Our family and friends hardly ever post to Facebook or Instagram anymore. iCloud's shared photo streams? Those are rock-solid and amazing. ![]() I even checked the special "Imports" album in the Photos.app sidebar, which shows the most recent group of photos you've imported. No matter whether I dragged from Finder or used the "Import." menu item - same thing. I did this five times with the same result before I finally thought to record the whole fiasco for posterity. I dragged photos from Finder into an empty album in Photos.app and watched as they were imported and then subsequently deleted. If you don't have JavaScript enabled, you can I'll just import the photos into an album in Photos.app on my Mac, which will then sync to my iPhone, and then I can use the Shutterfly app.Īnd here's where Apple's latest Photos.app fuckery comes into play. Like everyone else doing "modern" web development these days, I'm sure they're only testing in Chrome. The next obvious step? Upload those to Shutterfly and ship them off to my grandmother.Įxcept that Shutterfly's website uploader doesn't work in Safari. So today I went to Google Photos, selected about sixty of the best shots, and downloaded them to my Mac. Because I'm doing this on my phone and because Apple doesn't understand that families might want to see each other's photos, I can't pick any pictures my wife may have taken of our kids.īut, as I've written about, all of the photos we both take are stored in Google Photos. The issue I'm running into is that I'm only able to choose photos from my library. The whole process takes about five minutes and it brings her a whole lotta joy. ![]() Just select the photos from your library, wait a few minutes for them to upload, and then tap on my grandmother's saved mailing address and hit send. The Shutterfly app for iOS makes this very easy. ![]() But now I'm running into this.Įvery two months I upload a bunch of photos to Shutterfly and mail physical prints of my kids to my 95 year-old grandmother - their great-grandmother. I'm happy to report that hasn't happened again. Back in May I posted a Twitter rant about how iCloud Photos was fucking up videos I shot on my phone after upgrading to iOS 12.3.
