How can I view photo details on iPhone Photo app?

When I sync my phone with my computer I export pictures into iPhoto on my computer. I find it's easier to type in the description and details on my computer than on my phone. I organize photo's into albums and then sync the computer and phone. My question is, why doesn't the info on each photo show on my phone? It use to but I noticed that changed some time ago.

I don't see this, but I use iCloud Photos for synchronization. I think from your description that you don't, and you'e using a cable to "sync."


Like you, I do all editing, commenting, and cropping on my Mac. iCloud Photos automatically transfers all this to the phone without me thinking about it. iCloud actually synchronizes Photos on my phone, iPad, and Mac, that is, it keeps the Photos Libraries exactly the same, including all the metadata.


Maybe you should try it out?
