Iphone 8 camera

Why do I not get the opportunity to select "only photos" whilst using the camera? It is MUCH TOO EASY to take photos, then much later, when you down load these pictures, to discover some of them were taken in "slo-mo", or "square" or "video" or "burst". I ONLY want to take pictures!!! Please give me this option!!!

I also have an issue with icloud. Have you ever tried to use this app to download pictures to your pc? I would think that you as developers of these apps should check them out before releasing them to the public??? How do you select certain pictures to download? Using the scroll bar is IMPOSSIBLE - they scroll so quickly, you dont have a chance - then, of course, you have lost your place amongst all the pictures

I like apple phones, but you sure have the most shoddy picture system of all the phones!!

In summary:

1) Please give me the option to ONLY select which mode of pictures I want to take (somewhere in settings? Is this so difficult?

2) Please check your apps before releasing them to the public in future......

Thank you

you can submit your Apple Feedback here: Product Feedback - Apple



Keep your iDevice Updated - current stable release, including bug fixes iOS 15.5

Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support


Apple has Seeded "Second Release Candidate" Versions of iOS 15.6 — should be publicly available soon, my guess in a week or so.
