Cropping photos on your iPhone is now easier and more efficient thanks to the iOS 17 update. If this process used to require several steps that could test your patience, now with iOS 17, you only need one tap to start editing.
- Initial Step: Cropping a Photo
- Aspect Ratio and Rotation Settings
- Finish or Cancel Editing
- Using Undo and Redo Features
To crop a photo, open the Photos app on your iPhone and select the image you want to edit. If necessary, zoom in on the image with a pinch gesture to focus on a specific area. Next, tap the crop button in the upper right corner of the screen.
Once in the crop menu, you can adjust the aspect ratio, flip, rotate, or straighten your photo. To flip the image horizontally, tap the triangle icon. To rotate the photo 90 degrees, tap the square icon with an arrow. Use the slider to straighten the photo until it reaches the desired angle.
Once you are satisfied with the results, tap “Done” to save the changes. If you change your mind, you can tap “Cancel” and choose to discard the changes that have been made.
While editing a photo, you can undo or redo specific steps by tapping the “Undo” and “Redo” buttons at the top of the screen.
