01Turn it on
Use the view buttons at the top right, next to Column view, List view and Grid view: Photos view is the last one. Total Vault remembers your choice for each page.

02What it shows
- In All files, everything in your workspace.
- In a project or folder, everything inside it, subfolders included. No folders to click through.
- A file you kept in two places shows once.
03Sort, filter and jump
- Date taken sorts newest or oldest first. Recently uploaded shows what came in last.
- Filter narrows it to photos, videos, RAW or Live Photos. Show picks out Client favorites, files From guest links, or what's Not backed up yet.
- The date bar on the right jumps through the years. Press G to go to a date.
- Map opens your photos by where they were taken, when they have a location.
Press ? for every shortcut: arrows to move, Space to look closer, = and − to change the size.
