FEATURE PHOTO-EDITING TOOLS IN IOS 13 AND IPADOS 13

(positive slider).
This combination can let you correct
for optical effects, particularly in adjusting
images taken with the new ultra-wide-
angle lens on the iPhone 11 series.
Tapping the Crop tool before making
any changes triggers an analysis by
Photos. Previously, this applied just
straightening. Now it may also auto-
matically apply a tilt, too. If corrections
were made, a white-on-yellow AUTO
button at the top appears with a dash-
bordered square to its left. You can tap
that button to toggle those changes off
and on.
Finally, if you have an iPhone 11 phone,
you can turn on Capture Outside the


Frame in Settings → Camera, and if you’re
shooting at 1x (all iPhone 11 models) or 2x
(iPhone 11 Pro and Pro Max), the Camera
app captures additional detail used for
automatic framing, but that’s available for
adjustment in the Crop view.
The Camera app may automatically
apply cropping adjustments using
information outside the frame if Settings
→ Camera → Auto Apply Adjustments is on.
If so, you see a blue AUTO label in Photos.
(I have not yet seen this appear after
taking a large number of over-captured
photos, however.)
Learn more about the iPhone 11 over-
capture feature and how to use it to its
best advantage (go.macworld.com/ovrc). ■

The new tilt
options for the
Crop tool let you
fix perspective
on images, such
as this wide-
angle shot (left)
normalized for
perspective with
top/bottom tilt
(right).
