The magnifier option in photo editing is not available any more, I use it in my work as I am a dermatologist, how can I find a replacement ?

Indeed, since iOS 17, the Magnify tool has disappeared when annotting images. The only known solution is to share the image with the Books app where the Magnify tool is still available when editing an image.

You may want to notify Apple of the missing feature: Product Feedback - Apple.

after iOS 17 native "photo editor and magnification is gone" but now we have much better alternative app for same. do try it: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/photo-editor-with-magnifier/id6502226327

Work around magnifier in photos! go to preview. Click photo put in Preview. Go to View. show markup Tool bar. At the top of tool bar hit shapes. On the pull down hit the last icon that looks like a small a with a circle. Magnet arrives on the photo.

"You can also use the Zoom feature to magnify the screen no matter what you’re doing. You can magnify the entire screen (Full Screen Zoom) or magnify only part of the screen with a resizable lens (Window Zoom).

Go to Settings > Accessibility > Zoom, then turn on Zoom.

one of several setting options: Zoom Region: Choose Full Screen Zoom or Window Zoom.

Seems we now have a magnifier app!

See: How to: Use Magnifier on your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support for tips.

Eg: Above article says:

"You can also add Magnifier to Control Center for easier access".

Create an Accessibility Shortcut or add Magnifier to Control Center

All the best :-)

It is amazing how many different topics people read into the subject line of this post. This is about the magnifying glass feature within photo editing to highlight certain details with a circle magnifying what's underneath. ITS GONE! Another example how another working and intuitive tool got totally messed up! APPLE ! Why are you doing such things?!?
