Ipad Mini Photos Gone Haywire

[smurfchops]

Since software update yesterday, my photos have gone weird. I have lost lots of them, they are not in delete file and iCloud is on. Photos used to be in date order, small squares of photos, around seven to ten in a line, now they are huge and I can’t change the layout. I have tried by changing Years, Months, etc. but still not going back to normal. Can someone help,please? I am not technical, thank you.

Have you tried ALL PHOTOS option?

Yes tried that,the photos are just not in the order they used to be, with dates separating each month, and more photos on each line, and as I said less photos than before. I am sure it is something to do with the update ….

Just experimenting with mine.

Do you have a side column headed Photos?

If so, look for an icon just above the P of Photos.

Looks like [] ]

Clicking it toggles the side panel on and off

No, I have a blue square above the word Photos…

Sorry excuse me, that is what you describe. Didn’t quite recognise it!
