Photos View

Browsing

Navigate folders by clicking their names. The breadcrumb trail at the top shows your current location — click any segment to jump back up.

Toggle between list view (≡) and thumbnail view (⊞) using the buttons in the toolbar. Thumbnail view is great for quickly scanning captures; list view shows dates and file sizes.

Viewing Images

Click any image to open the full-screen viewer.

Image Viewer

The viewer shows the full image with an RGB histogram overlay in the lower-right corner. Click Hist to collapse or expand it. Use the histogram to check exposure — spikes hard against the right edge mean highlights are blown; spikes hard against the left mean underexposure.

Timelapse Folders

Timelapse folders open in thumbnail view automatically, showing every frame as a grid.
