Get to know iOS 7: Videos
   




   

If you were hoping that the Videos app would make a breakthrough in iOS 7, you’re in luck, at least to some extent—the app does receive some visual improvements, easier navigation, and support for iCloud-stored videos.


For a few years, the Videos app has lagged behind the Music app on the iPhone. It even lacked a tabbed interface on the iPhone, instead offering a long scrolling list of your movies, TV shows, and music videos. No longer: The app now presents a tab for each video category on both iPhone and iPad, along with a new Shared tab.


If you don’t have any videos on your device, but you previously purchased videos via iTunes, the app now properly displays iCloud-stored content you haven’t downloaded locally; this feature has been present on the Mac for a year, so it’s nice to see the option make its way to iOS.

Movies

The Movies tab displays the posters of any films you’ve downloaded or purchased, whether they’re on your device or not. Tap a poster to see a larger version of it followed by the movie’s name and rating, as well as a play button.
