Do photos in library identify what album they have been added to?

Hello Ksmatti,

Thanks for posting in the Apple Support Communities.

It sounds like you're curious where your photos are added to when they're in the library of your iPhone with the albums, right?

If we have that right, the following resource may be helpful in learning more about the albums on your iPhone. While you don't receive a notification to let you know where each photo is added in albums, this may help to determine why a photo would appear in a curated album: Organize and find your photos on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

Albums

In the Albums tab, find the albums that you’ve created, shared albums that you've created or joined, and collections of different types of photos and videos, like Selfies, Portrait, and Slo-mo. You can also look at your photos arranged on a world map in the Places album, or browse your photos based on who’s in them in the People album.

The Recents album shows your entire collection in the order that you added them to your library. When you use iCloud Photos, the changes that you make to your albums on one device appear on your other devices too.

While we know that may not be the answer you were looking for, we hope that's able to help!

Have a great day!
