Apple has done away with its consumer photo library, iPhoto, only to release the new version called "Photos."

Last year Apple announced an end to the development of iPhoto and its professional photo editing suite, Aperture. Simultaneously, the company announced the development of an all new app, that is going to be based on cloud sharing.

"With the introduction of the new Photos app and iCloud Photo Library, enabling you to safely store all of your photos in iCloud and access them from anywhere, there will be no new development of Aperture," the company said at the time, according to The Verge.

The app has four tabs, which are called "photos," "shared," "albums" and "projects." The photos tab contains all the pictures in the handset in a chronological order. Shared tab contains the pictures for the shared photo stream, which comes with an add-on of activity feed that comprises of likes and comments. The next tab contains albums that the user creates. The final tab is a storefront for Apple's printed photo products such as cards, books, calendars, and so on, according to The Verge.

The app also reportedly comes with support for iCloud Photo library. The iCloud option enables the user to automatically store all of the photos and videos in iCloud Photo Library in their original format and in full resolution, according to Mac Developers.

The software is expected to release this spring as a free download for users running OS X Yosemite, according to Engadget.
