In this series, TECHBOOK shows you the best iPhone hacks and tricks–with video and detailed instructions.

The iPhone has undergone a long development history since its launch in 2007. Over the years, Apple has continually expanded the iOS operating system, often adding small and large, sometimes well-hidden features. In the “iPhone Hacks” series, TECHBOOK presents the best and most practical of these features.

In Part 2, we show you how to select multiple photos in the Photos app and move them to an album all at once.

How It Works

1. Open the Photos app on your iPhone

2. Press and hold a photo you want to move until the iPhone briefly vibrates, then slightly drag the image to the side (keep holding)

3. Tap other photos to create a bundle (keep holding)

4. Drag the bundle to the Albums tab and wait for it to open (keep holding)

5. Drag the bundle to the album where you want to move the photos and release

6. Open the album, and the photos are now saved there
