How to Edit iPhone Photos?

For fast edits, use Photos’ built-in tools: crop/straighten, exposure, color, and filters. You can always revert to the original.

Edit in the Photos app

1. Open Photos > select an image > tap Edit.
2. Start with Crop/Rotate to straighten horizons.
3. Adjust Light (Exposure, Brilliance, Highlights, Shadows).
4. Adjust Color (Vibrance, Saturation, Warmth).
5. Use Sharpen and Definition lightly to avoid noise.
6. Tap Done. Use Revert if you don’t like the result.
