Here’s how to crop, rotate or flip your photos
- Open the Photos app on your iPhone
- Choose a photo that you want to crop.
- Zoom in on the photo if needed. To zoom in on the image, use a pinch-out gesture on the screen. Place two fingers close together on the photo itself and spread them apart. Keep spreading your fingers until you’ve zoomed in enough to focus on the desired area of the photo. This will allow you to examine finer details and make precise cropping adjustments.
- Press the crop button located in the top right corner of your screen
- Utilize the full crop menu to adjust the aspect ratio, Flip, Rotate, or Straighten your photo.
- To Flip, tap the triangle to flip the image horizontally.
- To Rotate, tap the square with an arrow over it to rotate the photo 90 degrees
- To Straighten, use the slider to adjust the photo’s angle until you achieve the desired alignment.
- Tap Done to save your edits, or if you don’t like your changes, tap Cancel, then tap Discard Changes.
