I updated my iphone to ios 17 and then I needed to edit a photo with markup. That's when I noticed the magnify option is missing. What can I do to get it back.
[Re-Titled by Moderator]
iPhone 6s Plus, iOS 13
I want Apple to reconsider putting the magnifier tool back in the photo edit mode. This was a very useful feature.

hey Steve, if you hear me please tell the guy to stop releasing a new phone every 6 months and bring back magnifying tool instead!! 📦🐇
I submitted, thank you! Its not just the magnifier though.
1) the magnifier
2) the DELAY in menus. They think we want sweeping animations NO I WANT FAST. When i tap something, i want the popup immediately like it used to be
3) messages…they need to put photos below the message like it was. That sweeping animation popup is HORRIBLE, harder to see, harder to use, wastes time. It needs to go
4) the boxes are all filled in! This doubles my work flow! Doubles the time it takes me to mark up EVERY image!
these changes are an absolute disgrace. And that feedback form has limited characters so you cant even tell them everything they messed up. For most, these are probably minor inconveniences. But for me its an additional 20 hours of work each week so to say im furious is an understatement.
Was so surprised when I found out that this feature had been removed in iOS17. Editing photos was much easier back then when we had it, not sure if this would be brought back cause when I tried talking to an agent the other day, it seems like they're still not aware of this? (another surprising moment for me)
Really hope they'd bring it back in the future updates of iOS17!!!
Not referring to text ability to magnify part of the photo is gone the magnify option
The only solution is to install Canva which is free, and just open your photo there and add a circle FRAME. Then put the photo inside the frame and pinch to wherever you want to zoom and save it like this.
I’ll be replacing my aging iPhone XS with a Galaxy S24. The tools there for photos now that it has AI are far superior.
it feels like I’m working with a dumb phone again like years ago with iOS4 when I couldn’t copy and paste. When we had to find crappy apps to do very simple things because our dumb iPhones couldn’t do it on their own.
they will add it again in iOS20 and sell it like it’s something new and groundbreaking. They’ll come up with a fancy new name for it too.
I was told they don't monitor this. This is just for community. They said we all need to contact support🥺
Went in to edit a photo for my small
business, I am the sole service provider & owner of a facial studio, & the magnifying tool is missing from the markup option in the photo editor. This tool is extremely useful to show case my clients before & after treatment results. I’m beyond disappointed in Apple for removing this feature. This feature is extremely important to small businesses, which are the backbone of this ever declining economy, please fix it ASAP. You’re hurting small businesses.
I don’t usually do this! Making my complaints but I am here now to make my statement! APPLE NEED TO BRING BACK THE Magnify mark up back! If I’ve known iOS 17 would not remove magnify I would not update my phone.
Found a free app that does it for now
