Hate the new Google Photos UI? Here’s how to fix the worst thing about it

If you’ve used Google Photos for years, as I and probably most people reading this have, there are certain features and creature comforts you’ve likely come to rely on. For me personally, one of those is seeing my photos organized by the date they were taken.

It’s a simple thing, but I love it. I like quickly scrolling through my Photos feed and knowing exactly when certain pictures or videos were captured. It helps me remember what I was doing on that specific date and keeps my app feeling nice and organized.

Unfortunately, that quietly disappeared from Google Photos earlier this year. Google didn’t make a big deal about it, but it happened. One of the most fundamental ways I use Photos was there one day and gone the next.

Thankfully, there is a way to bring it back, and I’m going to show you how.
