I had created a great slideshow of a recent trip, then I upgraded to ios18. Now I can’t display the photos as I want, can’t change the playback speed or add my own music from itunes. This is HORRIBLE!

iPad Air 2, iPadOS 15
I am using iPad OS18. The photos are in an album of their own as well as saved as a memory slideshow. Before I upgraded to OS18 I was able to display the photos in a magazine style…one full photo at a time. I was also able to change the speed of the slides by using the slider from “rabbit to turtle”, and add my own music from my iTunes library. Now with the update my photos are grouped/cropped automatically, it plays too fast and I can’t use my iTunes library. The links you provided were for the iPhone not iPad.
I just called Apple support and talked to a senior advisor, I spent one hour to help him see the issue on his iPhone, he agreed that there are lots of issues with the Airplay and slideshow.
But I discovered while on the phone that if you tap one image from Photos and go to the left Arrow the Airplay option is there, and once you connect to a smart TV, then select slide show form the meatball menu - 3 dots- on the left and play slideshow, strangely enough all the photos after that one you tapped on. You can do the same without Airplay, just on your mobile device. The main thing is do not select "select" just tap on one photo and gets a slideshow, but it is very strange it crops on its own and plays 3 photos in one slide, I don't like this, but hopefully the senior tech he said he's escalating the issue and within 24 hours. Another option if you want to do a slide show on your smart TV is screen mirroring.
So I think there is a work around - select all the photos in the album, then select make a (new) slideshow. The new slideshow seems to have the available settings. Anyway, this is what I did and I got the settings I needed🤷♂️ Doesn't seem like Apple is stepping up to bat!🤬
Just found that on a Mac you can create a slideshow that is not a memory.
There is a lot more control and you can adjust duration.
The resulting slideshow does not appear in memories but in a new "Projets" category.
You can export the slideshow as a movie.
So far I have not found the same thing on the Iphone or Ipad but the exported file can be played on those.
It is far from perfect because it generate a separate file.
I would have prefered rich slideshow feature in the Photo app that work on all Apple devices.
Don't forget to submit feature request to bring back more Slideshow/Memories control on IOS
Well stated, I echo your comments x10 !!!!
iOS 18.3 has arrived and Apple doesn’t care about their customers frustration with their changes made to photos.
WTH? Come on Apple, we don’t like your slideshows, we want to do it ourselves. Your blowing it for long term users.
I think the quickness of the slideshow matches the music you choose!
Also, if you export the slideshow it becomes a movie that Quicktime plays. In Quicktime you can change the playback speed.
Thank you
I exported it from the photos library and it opened as a video in Quicktime.
On your iPhone?
I'm having the same issue! I play a slideshow before every class I teach. Now it's waaaaaaaay to fast. Apple needs to fix the slideshow feature to allow users to control the speed of the slideshow.
Hopefully Apple tech know about this issue, when could solve its, to return the slideshow feature back?
Now i’m back to use the very old iPhone 7 /8 and 10 instead of iPhone16, it’s useful for me.
Just did the the upgrade to 18.2 and it’s still not solved
Can’t change the playback speed or display pictures from Photo app post update
