How to Use Siri to Add Photos to an Album

One of the cool new things that Siri can do is see what’s on your iPhone screen. Now, it’s not that Siri is constantly looking at your screen. It will only see what’s on the screen when prompted. You can use this to your advantage in the Photos app. For more news on the latest iPhone update, be sure to sign up for our free Tip of the Day newsletter. Now, here’s how to use Siri to add photos to an album:

1. Open the Photos app and find the photo you want to add to an album.

   
   

2. Once you have the photo you want, say “Siri, add this photo to [x] album.” Just replace the [x] with the name of the album you want to add the photo to.

   
   

3. You may be asked to give Siri access to the Photos app. Just tap Turn On.

   
   

4. Tap OK.

   
   

5. The photo will be added to your album.

   
   

That’s how to add photos to albums using Siri on iOS 27. You can also ask Siri to add the photos to a new album, if you don’t already have an album in mind.
