Apple Intelligence is now available on iPhone, iPad, and Mac!
Hi, when changing a Live Photo key frame, the image zooms in a bit. The zoom remains when saving the picture with the new key frame. When exporting the images , the resolution is lower than the original - to me it seems the pictures get cropped when changing the key frame. Is there any way to avoid this?
thanks, to

That is normal and cannot be changed. When you take a Live Photo, your iPhone or iPad will save a very high quality still frame as the key photo, the moment you take the photo, and a video clip. The video clip is highly compressed and of a much lesser relation than the still frame. When you change the keyframe, Photos will extract a frame from the video clip, and that cannot be of the same quality as the original key frame. If possible, keep the original keyframe. You will get the best results, if you take the Live Photo at exactly the right moment for the best still image.
