Doubts about finder and gallery

[devout halo]

This week, the first time I opened the finder, I had the gallery tab where, when I clicked, all the photos I had in my iPhone's gallery appeared, but I don't know why now only a folder called photos library appears and when you open it there it opens the gallery app

Is it possible for me to get this tab back like I had it before?

So your saying, there was a gallery tab in finder, but now there’s just an images tab with a thing that opens gallery if clicked?

[devout halo]

yes, before, clicking on this tab opens a folder with all my photos from the gallery.
now, when you click, only this folder appearsand when I click on it it opens the gallery app

Isn't it normal to be like this?

For example, I use Canva a lot for school projects. Before, I could update the images directly from the gallery to Canva, now I need to download the images from the gallery to the PC and then upload them

when clicking to upload I would go to this gallery folder and all the photos would appear

I have no idea tbh
What macOS are you running, and did u try a restart?

[devout halo]

Yes, I already tried restarting but the folder continues to appear as in the screenshot I sent above

It was literally a folder that had all the photos in my iPhone gallery.

Honestly no idea tbh

I want to upload a photo from the gallery to a website and I can't do it directly. I have to go to the gallery app, download it and after it is in the transfer folder, then I put it on the website

I don't know if it could be, but this week I updated the system to a new version and I think it was then that it stopped being like that.

[mystic fog]

Oh hmm
Maybe Apple fixed or patched something in an update
You can… try using iPhone mirroring to drag and drop photos and files, if that helps
I’m not sure there’s a way to bring the tab back

[devout halo]

Imagine, the tab still exists, it's the images tab in the finder, but before it had photos there, now there's this folder that when you open it, opens the gallery

[devout halo]

talking about this tab

it appears when I try to upload it to a website, but before it appeared in the finder

This is in Portuguese, but it is in the multimedia tab and then in the photographs folder

[mystic fog]

Oh ok
I do not have any idea what could be causing that
Is there a media tab with a photographs folder in the finder? Because in the finder it looked like u were looking at the Images tab
I’m not familiar with Mac finder so idk

[devout halo]

yes it was before. I confuse

But let it be, at least it appears when I try to upload it. It's already progress

thank you very much for the help

[mystic fog]

[devout halo]
