Double tap zoom in photos not working

Hi. When I double tap a photo it used to zoom before. Now it only zooms when the background is black (it becomes black after tapping the open photo once). It does not zoom when double tapping the photo with the white background (ie the one with thumbnails below). Is this a bug or intended?

iPhone SE, iOS 12

iPhone 11 Pro - Zoom on camera doesn't work correct Hi! I have a strange situation with my IPhone 11 Pro. When I’m trying to take photos with the zoom-function it doesn’t work as it should. For example: If I open the camera app and choose “Picture” then I have zoom “x2”-zoom and I can only change the zoom to “x1” and then the zoom it’s stuck here. If I change to portrait-mode I can only choose zoom “x2”. In Panoram-mode I can choose “x0.5” “x1” but not “x2”. Ive tried to restart my iPhone, install the new update 14.7. But nothing works, I still have the same issue as above. Hope someone can help me before I need to visit MacStore. Best regards

Live photo wallpaper cropping error Hello! So I am attempting to set a photo I've taken as my lock screen wallpaper and having the live photo available for tap. But when I've set the photo and do the tap, the clip that plays is cropped entirely wrong and shows only on part of the screen, a large chunk of the the screen remains turns black. The feature works fine with other photos. Is there a way to fix this? Thanks!
