I still can't believe Apple ditched Events, it seems so basic and yet so useful. Honestly I had no hopes for the Photos app, but this news sounds promising.

Hallelujah! It's absurd that at this point, Photos can't even share its contents with Apple's own apps like Final Cut without ridiculous workarounds. Apple's apps give the laughable direction to "Open Photos if you want to see your photos". Its as if the software were released half-finished and then Apple moved on to other things.
Ah...another os x "major glitch update." Let me tell you a story about el capitan..."Once a upon a time, there was a tech company, Apple, who used to have a decent os x upgrade every...Edit: year or nearly 2 year with a fee of 120 dollars. The last major and efficient OS X was SL. These days, they have been releasing os x each with minor features...but it was free. Free is good, right? Not really...especially when users had to update 10.11.0. Yeah.. They have the reputation of "bugging" users out by not reading our apple feedbacks...and providing use useless features....and again...siri and photo app."
I don't get you, Apple. It appears that you're focusing on photos lately..and you can't even beat samsung's latest camera.
Give us productivity...not entertainment.

I tried that well over a year ago and found that I am much faster and more effective with Aperture. I'll be forced to do it one day, but untilI am forced, I continue to cling to Aperture.

I still don't understand why Apple discontinued Aperture and iPhoto.
Currently, if you drag a photo from the Photos App, to say, the Messages app, it takes MINUTES to complete. And there is no sign that it is doing anything. You have no idea if the app is working on what you wanted it to do, or if it didn't register at all.
I dont understand why system preferences takes so long to open at times. It wasnt like this in yosemite.
Please give me back old iPhoto features like viewing a map with all geolocated photos. Also, the name iPhoto, because it's freaking impossible to Google search for help with problems when your app is named as generic as "Photos".
Kinda dissapointed, thought we were going to see much more for 10.12.
Siri and an update in photos app... I still hope they are hiding something huge.

Hopefully it includes a proper way to hide photos.
Apple is working on enhancing the Photos app in both iOS 10 and OS X 10.12, reports Japanese site Mac Otakara. The apps will reportedly be updated with new features to put them on par with the now-discontinued iPhoto 9.6.1 for Mac and iPhoto 2.0.1 for iOS.
It is not clear exactly what features will be added to the apps, but Mac Otakara says iPhoto 2.0.1 included tools for editing EXIF information and touch-based brushes for adjusting brightness and other parameters on only specific parts of a photo. Similar editing tools could be added to the iOS version of Photos.
On OS X, the Photos app will see improvements, but Mac Otakara says Aperture-level functions will not be added to the app.
We don't have much information about OS X 10.12 and iOS 10 as of yet, but a recent rumor has suggested Siri integration will be a headline feature in OS X 10.12. Siri on the Mac has been a long-desired feature and the personal assistant will likely be able to do things like adjust system settings, answer quick queries, and open apps.
OS X 10.12 and iOS 10 will likely be coming in the fall months, but we can expect to see a preview of the software at WWDC 2016, which is typically held in June.

For the love of god, can I please just copy-paste settings between photos without going into edit mode for each one? Or apply copied settings to multiple selected photos. I really don't think I'm asking too much. Is Apple really so clueless they can't immediately see what a burden it is to touch up dozens or hundreds of photos for which 95% of the adjustments will be the same?

Agreed. I liked the map.
Also, have a way to merge Photos Libraries. Somehow, I ended up with two separate Photos libraries, each with separate pictures.
Whiten teeth would be good. more blemish tools as well. Editing is an nightmare in your phone because you need different apps to do it.
These apps should be unbundled and not be part of the base OS. I mean, 10.12 has to have something better than this.
I don't understand the point of sticking to annual updates if all they're adding are tweaks and minor improvements.
Also, Photos may be a stock app, but it's not actually part of the OS itself.

Oh yes, there is some potential, particularly photos on iOS. I am a bit tired to delete and resync everything from my iPad/iPhones, just because all the albums have again become garbled and folders get multi-multi-multi-multiplied with identical names, containing some photos from everywhere in my library. This appears to be an almost impossible task for Apple. The most interesting: If it becomes garbled again all devices get garbled absolutely identical.
And: Apple should add some decent sorting options, as actually no one really understands the sorting ahglomyrth (just use an algorhtyhm we do understand...)

the work around solution in the current version i s a joke. using Apple Script and batch change???
nope everyone i know. thats not very representative of course.
locking phone wont help if u give it to someone to do something photo unrelated. yes there are 3rd party apps but thats not the same esp. with iCloud Photo Library plus it could be a choice ... ? id go even further, let me lock albums. everytime i want to show someone travel pics or sth and they swipe to far my heart goes like omg what did they see
i dont understand why there arent just toggles in the settings to lock whatever app you want to lock anyway
The thing Apple still uses in most of their iMacs even in 2016.
Photos is already way better than iPhoto was...
The only thing they need to do is make a Photos Pro extension and sell it in the app store. It would replace Aperture functionality.
