Fabulous folders
Start by creating folders or albums based on categories like Holidays, Family, Friends, or specific events like Birthday 2022. This will be your foundation for organisation.
Use descriptive names
Give your folders clear and descriptive names. Avoid vague titles like ‘miscellaneous’ as they can become a digital dumping ground.
Sort by date
Most smartphones allow you to sort photos by date. Use this feature to arrange your photos chronologically, making it easier to find pictures from a specific time.
Delete unwanted photos
Regularly go through your photos and delete duplicates, blurry shots, or ones you no longer need. This keeps your collection clutter-free.
Backup your photos
Consider using cloud storage services like Google Photos or iCloud to automatically back up your photos. This means you won't lose them if your phone gets lost or damaged.
Tag people and places
Use built-in tagging features to identify people and places in your photos. This makes it easier to find pictures of specific people or locations.
Use captions
Adding captions or descriptions to your photos can help you remember stories behind them.
Regularly review
Set aside some time every month to review and organise new photos. This will hopefully stop your collection from becoming overwhelming.
Happy organising!
