The photo editor

Straighten and crop, rotate, resize, draw, add text, and erase people, things and text, all on the phone.

The app has an editor of its own: straighten and crop, rotate, resize, draw, add text, and erase people, things and text. Open a photo, tap it, then Edit. Everything runs on your phone.

01 · The tools
Crop

Drag the frame or its edges, then Apply; Reset brings back the whole picture. The Straighten slider under the photo levels a crooked horizon, half a degree at a time. See straightening a photo.

Rotate

Left or Right, a quarter turn each.

Resize

Change size asks for the width and height, with Keep aspect ratio, and shows the size of the file before and after.

Draw

Draw on the picture with your finger; Size sets the line. Hold your finger still at the end of a line and it becomes the shape you meant: a straight line, an arrow, a triangle, a rectangle, a circle or an oval.

Text

Tap the photo where the text goes, type it, and Add; Size sets the letters.

Erase

Paint over a person or a thing and it is filled from what is around it; Find text marks the words in the photo so they go too. See erasing people and things and erasing text.

Undo and Redo step through your changes. Leaving with changes asks Discard your changes? first.

02 · Saving

Save overwrites the original or adds the edited photo as a copy. A copy goes next to the original, is dated when you save it so it comes first in your list, and keeps the people of the original. See saving an edit.
